For each tree that he spends his time climbing and clambering into, the mysterious thing is catching up ever slightly. Vee can see it shaking the trees that it believes he's been in.

The bark on the trunks of the imposing forest appears aged and ancient. Like they've been here longer than he ever could have. Which way does he take?
