They told me they would give anything to see it for the first time again it is so wonderful.

I am a prisoner of the forest. I always have been and I always will be. These chains bind me to this large oak tree. Although not actual chains. Just a magical force field that confines me to a small square. Twice a day a goblin delivers food for me. I have no idea how or why I got here, but then, everything changed.

It said, "I'm coming to save you. I have always been there for you." It was signed G. I had no idea what any of this meant. I figured it was the same person.

The next day I woke up and saw the brightest light I had ever seen in my life, out of the corner of my eye. I turned my head...

Dun...dun...dun...
