You do not know if you have grown too used to taking risks or if it is Guide staring at you intensely, wanting you to do it. But somehow, you each decide to eat a mushroom.
At first, nothing happens other than you feeling a numbness on your tongues and a growling in your bellies. Then the world becomes very intense. You cannot remember lying down, but the sky is now before you. Or did it move there somehow? You try to explain to yourself why that should not be possible – and fail. It is hard to concentrate, because the whole wood is screaming at you, "TREEKILLER! TREEKILLER! TREEKILLER!", in a deafening roar. Then something else distracts you. An animal is walking over you with its long bony legs, sniffing you, searching for something. But this is wrong, because it does not have a face and its body is made out of branches. Finally, the wood's anger seems to subside, its strange voices slowly fading to silence. The trees are crying now, their tears blind you and wash away the confusion.
Slowly, the world goes back to normal. There was more going on earlier, but you have forgotten most of it. Was that a dream? You shake each other back to reality. What were you thinking? You are alone in an alien place full of A'Dendri that may now consider you their enemy. You need to come to your senses and come up with a plan.
