Teres

Thanks!

I was imagining Faraday getting advice from the tree, which sided with her because of her pendant, but the pendant itself making it easier for her to understand actually makes sense since it'd filter out anything that might overwhelm her. (Ceolmund crafted it with a broad definition of 'enchantment'.)

(That said, my primary idea for that scene was purely that the 'Tree Friend' should, well, befriend trees! Seriously, what's the point of establishing that she's unusually talented at tree-speaking if it's barely plot-relevant?)
