"What have you been feeding the two trees?" Alex asked Whisker who had been going around the 4th mountain, checking on the Alchemy plants that were growing there.
A lot of True beasts roamed those mountains, so he had to make sure some of them didn't end up eating the important ones.
"Brother? You are free?" Whisker asked.
"For the moment," Alex said. "The trees seem to be coming along nicely."
"Yes, they are," Whisker said. "That one still tries to eat me when I get too close. I have to keep teleporting out or I will die."
He was talking about the World Tree.
"It's still growing and will feed on anything it can find to grow," Alex said.
Whisker nodded. "That water you got has been very helpful. It has gotten a lot less needy ever since I started feeding it. But now I need more of it. I'm running out of it."
