While you are speaking to the creature, tiny mammals are accumulating around Ning/Nang and then they seem magnetically drawn to the wooden giant. Soon the creature is covered by a few dozen citters of various types, playing in his leaves and branches and nibbling on the few fruit growing on his body. The Creature doesn't seem to mind at all. In fact his lazy smile grows with each passing second of them exploring his wooden body. Crozar notices a white bunny nibbling on one of the prickly fruit on his own heel too. A glimmer of bluish energy ripples over the rabbit's body. It then suddenly stops eating, sniffs the ground then follows a ferret into the leaves on the creature's thigh.
You say your goodbyes. While you wander away you look back a few times to see the creature still munching on the greenery while tiny animals play. Every moment you travel you find something new and wondrous to observe in this cave. The brilliant colors of your surroundings seem to almost blend together like watercolor. And all the creatures you spot are both bizarre and beautiful. Fish with peacock feathered tails. Spindly legged, pink fauns, bounding through the tall grasses of every shade of green, adorned with beautiful garlands of flowers growing from the tips of their antlers. Elephants the size of mules with huge, leaf and flowered branches growing from the top of their skulls.
Soon, after about 30 minutes you can see the thin, wispy column of smoke is coming from an old chimney attached to a run down shack. The smoke drifts upward until it escapes through an opening in the ceiling that reveals a blue sky. Despite its years of obvious neglect the home is covered in multicolored flowers, twisted vines of ivy and is sitting in the center of an enormous patch of various squashes. it actually seems rather neat and cozy considering it's in a cave.
You're about 50' away when you spot some movement. There seems to be someone trying to shoo away a flock of strange birds from one of their young squash beds. They're waving what looks like a long crooked staff at the little beasts.
