A strange earthy smell wafted through the air towards Chris and River. It smelled of dry earth and wet wood and something sinister between the two. "Warped wood does not grow well in thin earth." River said as she easily dodged another thorn. "The area must be kept pure. She can't come across if it isn't pure. Bless the earth, keep the dirt clean!"
"Who's she?" Chris asked and had only a moment to dodge himself as another thorn, this one big enough to be called a lance, flew by him. "And who are they?"
The sounds were coming from all sides now, but as Chris peered into the jungle, he couldn't make anything out except for dense branches and undergrowth. (Funny, I don't remember it being that dense when...)
And then one appeared. It stood about 4 feet tall. Vaguely primate looking , brown and looked as if made entirely out of branches. (Oh,) Chris finished.
The creature hissed at Chris and flung his hands out towards him, projecting 3 large thorns in his direction.
