[She sniffs slightly. Her voice cracks again when she speaks, but it's not sad this time.]
It really, really did. I met two people on my journey and they....they were really good to me. They saw how messed up I was and decided to take me to the forest.
Then when I got there, I...I was able to commune with the Sacred Tree. Like, it didn't talk to me, but it was still alive, and it could like...it sensed what I had been through.
[She holds up her wooden arm.]
It gave me this. And...after that, the pain in my arm and my leg stopped. When the pain stopped, I was able to focus on other things. And eventually...the nightmares stopped happening so often too.
That was when I knew. That something like this, that just wanted to give life and help people...it had to be protected, no matter what. I also wanted to repay it for helping me.
...it gave me my life back. Right then, I decided to become a hunter.
