Overview

A juvenile spider tortoise called Tilly set out on her daily expedition in the thick underbrush of the forest, where old trees towered above and sunshine filtered through a canopy of green. She went deliberately slowly, the elegance of her small belied by the powerful legs that carried her over the woodland floor. Tilly was not your typical tortoise; she was a member of the endangered Spider Tortoise species, so called because of its incredible dexterity and natural ability to climb trees. Tilly's sharp eyes searched the forest for any indications of adventure or danger as she meandered through it. Her natural curiosity had always driven her to explore the mysteries concealed in the forest's depths. But things felt different today. An air of expectation and a hint of eagerness appeared to invite her to go forward. Tilly persisted, her resolve pushing her further and farther into the heart of the forest, disregarding the warning voice in the back of her mind. Soon after, she discovered a secret door tucked away among the old tree's twisted roots. Tilly approached warily, her senses keenly tuned in, intrigued. She saw a glint of light as she stared into the concealed cavern's blackness. Stepping cautiously, Tilly entered the cave's depths, her pulse racing with a combination of excitement and terror. As she continued into the unknown, the sound of pouring water reverberated off the walls and the air seemed musty and chilly. Tilly's foot caught on something hard, and she staggered forward, almost falling. When she was able to get herself up, she saw what had caused her to trip: a little, finely carved item that was partially submerged in the ground. Tilly marveled at the object's artistry as she reached down and scooped it up with shaking claws. Tilly had never seen anything like this before; it was a smooth stone with odd patterns and symbols that gave out a peculiar, ethereal vibe. She felt a wave of amazement and a renewed feeling of purpose as she turned it over in her claws. Tilly realized at that same instant that her life would never be the same. It was something old and strong that she had discovered, and it would lead her to her destiny. Tilly emerged from the cave, the relic clenched in her claws, her heart bursting with enthusiasm and resolve as she ventured out into the forest.
