It is late at night, but the forest is alive with excitement. As the birdsong wind rushes through the trees they can be heard whispering. The rush of sound is subtle and almost silent until every rustle of the leaves harmonizes, and together it all forms a name.

"Briiisaa."

If she comes to the call she will be led to one tree in particular: the oldest one, so old that it has gained a sentience of sorts. Her branches are low and cradling, her roots twisted and breaking through the ancient soil, but despite the massive shadow she casts and the bright swath of moonlight that paints her sloping spine she has never before been seen. After all, in woods as dark and maze-like as these, its easy to lose a fixture of Helovia's past--especially if it does not want to be found.

But tonight the woods part and the moonlight, so bright that it mimics the sun, outlines a path for the Hidden Falls Mason. Brisa is welcomed and a rare sight is revealed to her alone, should she arrive. Again the leaves whisper, again the wind tugs at the mare's resting place. "Briiisaa," the old tree calls again; "Briiisaa," the forest chants in unison.

Leave behind the babbling waters of the Falls for one night only, stray from the comfort of the herd, and wonders await. Deep in the glowing knot of the tree, a spot in its heart, is a gift for those who honor nature, who wait with patience, and bow their head with humble grace.
