-She is inside the Tree of Spirits," said the bird carrying them.

-Is it possible to enter," asked Matthew.

-Of course, it is Sein's house," answered Mur.

-Her house?" asked Umi.

-Since they created her to contain the power of the Tree.

-I didn't expect that.

-What's inside the tree?

-You'll find out when you go inside.

When they finished the conversation, they arrived at the entrance of the tree which was a large stone door guarded by guards, a guardian went to the door with a piece of rock that was the key, they opened it and entered.

-Wow.

When you entered, you felt that the ground was covered with very soft leaves, in its surroundings there were very strange but beautiful plants along with flowers of different colors, some small blue insects flying inside the tree like fireflies.

-What is this wonder?

-It is the most beautiful tree I have ever seen.

-Come on guys, we have to go up.

-Are you kidding me? -Matthew asked.

-Matthew, you have to do it whether you like it or not.

-And why don't we take the bird?

-Oh, great idea.

-Then get in.

Elsewhere.

-Sir.

-*looking at him* Let me guess... they were shot down.

-Yes... sir.

-Damn it.

-But at least we wounded someone important.

-Who?

-The globular one that turned into a spirit.

-Sein?

-Sir, one of the minions you gave me wounded her left arm.

-I'm glad to hear that, I hope she doesn't recover.

-What's the next step? -What's the next step?

Back

-This tree is too much taller than the Ginson Tree.

-You said it Matthew.

-Guys, I want you to be quiet now because Sein is asleep.

-Of course.

They arrived then, at the top of the tree with another wonder they were going to see, as the leaves of the tree illuminated the area where they are and after passing by some plants you stood with your mouth open seeing Sein lying with a bandage on her left arm, next to her was Kil along with Pékin with tears in his eyes.

-Oh, hello Matthew," Sein greeted with a smile.

-Sein, I'm glad you woke up.

-Matthew," asked Kil.

-Kill... But what the heck?

-What happened to Sein?" said Umi worriedly.

-After we went to face the situation... we fought against those creatures... they were strong and fast... but with the help of the birds and the rest we were able to defeat them until... one of them attacked her by surprise and then she fainted" explained Kil while crying.

-Sein sat down next to her.

-Don't worry about me, I'll be fine.

-I hope so," Umi said sadly, on the verge of tears.

-Come here Umi.

Umi came closer to her so she could hug her, you felt so bad for Sein because of the situation she was going through.

-Hey, how about Umi continue telling Ori's story to lighten the mood?

-Yes, do it Umi," said Sein.

-It sounds good to me- wiped her tears Pékin.

Watch from 10:14 to 15:37

-Oh, how I miss Ori.

-Where is he now?

-You'll have to wait," laughed Sein.

-_-Okay, I'll wait.

-Sein, your house looks very nice and elegant.

-Aaaaah thank you.

-Do you want to go out? -Kil asked.

-Yes sure," he answered.

Sein got up from his bed without any problem, they each left the room and Pékin led them up some stairs into what looked like a gazebo. The view from the top was like that of the Ginson Tree, but they were in the middle of the forest and you could see places you never saw before.

-Hey, that's Ori's house," said Matthew pointing to the spot.

-That's the house!" asked Pékin.

-How do you know that's it?" asked Sein, surprised.

-After the creature attacked me from behind and then I fainted, I woke up in a place where I was attending to the wounded, I walked for a long time and met some spirits who were playing, I asked them how I could get to the tree, they showed me a path of stones to get there and then we said goodbye, I walked with a little pain in my back, I passed by some houses of the spirits, and I think in the middle of the journey I saw a house that from the outside was empty, on a sign it said "this is the house of the hero" I was surprised that I was in the very house of Ori, explore what was inside, then I continued along the road and you know what happens next.

-Incredible.

-I think life loves you.

-Ah, don't say that.

-Now? What can we do? -Matthew asked.

-I don't know.

-Sein?" a voice inside the tree.

-Sir?

-Oh, by all the spirits, I'm glad you're all right.

-I was having a hard time, I was in pain almost all over my body.

-Matthew, how are you?

-Hello Mr. Tree, I haven't seen you in days.

-Wait, didn't you know that Sein was inside you? But you are Sein's house," Umi asked.

-I was communicating with other spiritual trees about what happened with her, that's why I didn't know she had come to my wounded trunk.

-Can you communicate with other trees like you," asked Matthew.

-That's right, pot cierto, Pékin and Kil? Thank you very much for taking care of her.

-You're welcome, my lord," they both thanked.

-I'm hungry," said Matthew as he rumbled his belly.

-We're going to Matthew's house.

-Come Mur with us.

-As I have nothing else to do, I'll go.

-You, take Mur and Matthew, me and Kil with Pékin.

-At your orders.

-Ready boys.

-All set, you can start now.

-Let's fly." He jumped out of the tree and flapped his wings and headed for the house.

-Bye, have fun.
