Into the Millennial Forest

A Forest of Rumors

Dialogue

GingerBrave and friends were leading to the Longan Palace, to fight Longan Dragon Cookie and save the Cookies turned into stone all across the world! Moments before the battle between dragons erupted, the Cookies were overwhelmed by Longan Dragon Cookie and ended up on the run. But GingerBrave-brave as he is-didn't want to just give up without a fight. Instead of participating in combat, the band of Cookies scattered to look for a way to return their friends back to their crispy selves. GingerBrave: Finally, a forest...! This must be the forest rumored to be filled with life! Rambutan Cookie: So you're saying that somewhere in this huge forest is the Millennial Tree, blessed with the power of life? If we had a branch of that, we could save all the Cookies in my tribe who turned to stone! Rambutan Cookie: Since that village we passed by also was filled with Cookies turned to stone, it seems no one else has found a way to reverse it either... We should hurry and meet the Millennial Tree! Purple Yam Cookie: There's no telling what we'll face in a forest this big! GingerBrave: Good point! Last time we met all those Spiked Jellyworms it almost ended badly for us! Purple Yam Cookie: If we meet something we'll just beat them, there's nothing to be afraid of! Stop talking, let's just GO IN THERE ALREADY! GingerBrave: Wow... It's even deeper than it seemed from the outside! We'll definitely get lost if we aren't careful! Rambutan Cookie: It seems it won't be an easy task to find the Tree. Let's look for a place to set up camp before sunset. Purple Yam Cookie: Camping is mu specialty! I've spend many long nights in rough and dangerous places, pursuing Dark Choco Cookie! Purple Yam Cookie: Even Milk Cookie was amazed by my ability to make a campfire! Follow me! GingerBrave: Wow, so reliable! Purple Yam Cookie: Aaaand... THERE! This should be good! Rambutan Cookie: While the two of you set up camp, I'll go find some sticks to make fire with! Rambutan Cookie: ... Oh? I'm certain there was a branch here just a minute ago, why is there a tree in that exact location? GingerBrave: Surely it couldn't have... You're right...! And our campsite is suddenly filled with flowers too! I'm sure there was nothing but grass there when we came! Purple Yam Cookie: What? Is there a grass monster? WHERE?! Rambutan Cookie: Wait, can you hear that? Sounds like a lyre... Someone must be nearby. GingerBrave: Look! When the music started, everything started growing even more! Is someone using magic?! ???: You there. You are making the forest uneasy... The forest is not a monster. Purple Yam Cookie: Did you do this?! Cookie or monster, I don't care who you are, SHOW YOURSELF! ???: How could you talk like that to Lilybell Cookie... I should've figured when you tried to start a fire in the Millennial Forest, but you truly are uncivilized Cookies. GingerBrave: Oh? Some big and round things are floating around too... Like dandelions, but much bigger...? What could they be? GingerBrave: Wow! I've never seen such huge dandelions before! But is that... a Cookie on it? Lilybell Cookie: Don't be afraid of the plants. They grow because they like the tunes of my lyre. Blue Lily Cookie: Lilybell Cookie, you don't have to be that polite all the time. They have come here to destroy our forest. Lilybell Cookie: Blue Lily Cookie, shouldn't we at least hear what they have to say first? They don't seem like bad Cookies to me. Blue Lily Cookie: Just looking at the weapons they wield, I doubt having a talk would change much. Purple Yam Cookie: HEY! Stop with the whining and let's fight already! Blue Lily Cookie: Such a brute, just as expected. It's a waste even trying to communicate. Lilybell Cookie, let's send them on their way. Purple Yam Cookie: WHAT DID YOU SAY?! COME DOWN HERE RIGHT NOW!!! Rambutan Cookie: Everyone, wait! Don't you hear something coming? It sounds kind of like hooves... Purple Yam Cookie: Who cares about who's coming? I'll just BEAT THEM TOO! Blue Lily Cookie: Hah, there's no way I'd let someone that uncouth anywhere near the Tree. I'll never allow it. Purple Yam Cookie: Stop bluffing, and show us what you're made of! I'll make sure to send you way up into the sky! Lilybell Cookie: This sound, it can't be... But why would it be galloping so wildly...? Rambutan Cookie: It's a deer?! Blue Lily Cookie: What has made the Millennial Deer this upset? Lilybell Cookie: I think something happened... We have to calm it down... Purple Yam Cookie: Who cares about that? Let's just fight it! BRING IT! The Millennial Beast: ......! Rambutan Cookie: Purple Yam Cookie! Wait! It looks like it actually wants to attack us! I don't want to get hit by that horn...! Purple Yam Cookie: BRING IT! I'm not afraid at all! GingerBrave: It's growling even louder! It really didn't like that! Blue Lily Cookie: We should get out of here! Lilybell Cookie, come with me! Lilybell Cookie: But those Cookies... Blue Lily Cookie: This is not the time to worry about them! Grab my hand, quickly!

The Tale of the Grass Village

Dialogue

Purple Yam Cookie: LET'S FIGHT, you big pointy deer! The Millennial Beast: ......! Rambutan Cookie: Purple Yam Cookie, I don't think we should be fighting right now! Let's follow those other Cookies! Purple Yam Cookie: What are tou talking about?! How are we supposed to find the Tree with that giant deer in the way?! Rambutan Cookie: But we don't know this village! Surely there's a reason those Cookies decided to run. I think it's best if we follow those who know the area! GingerBrave: We don't have time to argue! Those Cookies are already all the way over there! Purple Yam Cookie: Hrmpf... FINE! Purple Yam Cookie: How are they... so FAST...?! Rambutan Cookie: I saw them go through the tall grass over there, but... is there really a village here...? GingerBrave: Oh! Look! There is is! GingerBrave: ... And that's how we got here! Lilybell Cookie: Cookies turned to stone... I can't believe it... We had no idea, since it didn't happen to our village... Rambutan Cookie: Really?! We passed many villages before getting here, but they were all filled with petrified Cookies...! Lilybell Cookie: It seems the Millennial Tree's protection prevented it from reaching here. GingerBrave: With that kind of power, maybe the Tree could even go up against Longan Dragon Cookie... GingerBrave: This village is so quiet and peaceful! Thanks for showing us around! Blue Lily Cookie: Don't be mistaken. We're only going with ou to make sure you don't destroy anything. GingerBrave: But everyone greeted us! Lilybell Cookie: Our village is located deep in the forest, so we don;t get visitors often, you see. GingerBrave: All the Cookies in this village seem to do things in pairs, just like the two of you! Blue Lily Cookie: Hah, the others aren't anything(sic) near as close as the two of us are. Rambutan Cookie: Everyone's laughing and smiling... Just like our tribe used to... Blue Lily Cookie: You speak as if you know, yet have no clue how our village became like this. GingerBrave: What do you mean by that? Lilybell Cookie: One day, all the trees withered and the ground quacked... The forest was getting destroyed and our village becoming ruins... GingerBrave: It's similar to what Mala Sauce Cookie told us! So something happened here too, huh... Lilybell Cookie: But thanks to the Tree, we learned even small forces working together can achieve great things. That's how we saved our village. Blue Lily Cookie: And that's why all the Cookies in our village always do things in pairs. Just looking at us should tell you that, though. Rambutan Cookie: Pairs, you say...

Back into the Forest

Dialogue

Lilybell Cookie: We're back at the village entrance. GingerBrave: We'll go back into the forest! Blue Lily Cookie: Didn't you see the Millennial Deer chasing you away? You won't be able to reach the deeper parts of the forest. Purple Yam Cookie: Hmpf, we didn't even do anything wrong! Just thinking about it makes me ANGRY! Blue Lily Cookie: Surely you aren't unaware of the reason? Lilybell Cookie: It is strange... I met the deer before in the forest, but I've never seen it this enraged before... Blue Lily Cookie: Hah, I guess that's just how much it resents those Cookies. Maybe we'll even get to see the Millennial Deer punish them too. Rambutan Cookie: Wait, what do you mean punish? Lilybell Cookie: The Millennial Deer is a divine beast protecting this forest, that is said to bring down punishment on those who dare destroy the forest... That is probably why it was enraged earlier too... Rambutan Cookie: Even if we're punished by the divine beast, we need to meet the Tree! I have to save my tribe...! GingerBrave: That's right! All the Cookies turned to stone are waiting for us! Purple Yam Cookie: So what are we waiting for? Let's go already! Lilybell Cookie: Let's go with them, Blue Lily Cookie... What if the deer truly punishes those Cookies...? Blue Lily Cookie: What does it matter if that happens? They aren't part of our village. You always worry too much about outsiders, Lilybell Cookie. Lilybell Cookie: Blue Lily Cookie... But... Blue Lily Cookie:... Okay, fine. I was going to make sure they didn't destroy our forest any more anyway. Lilybell Cookie: Thank you for understanding. Everyone, shall we get going? GingerBrave: Wow! Thanks! We really appreciate it! GingerBrave: Everyone, let's go! Blue Lily Cookie: Why are those Cookies gathered there? Did they return to seek the Tree? GingerBrave: That's Pomegranate Cookie! Pomegranate Cookie: ... It's a surprise to see you here. Licorice Cookie: What?! Don't tel me you have come for a Branch of Life too?! Rambutan Cookie: Wait, you...! Purple Yam Cookie: Who said you could take that?! BRING IT!!! Licorice Cookie: Heh... You'll regret that! Pomegranate Cookie: We should deal with them quickly, before they turn into even more of a nuisance. Poison Mushroom Cookie: Hey... Pomegranate Cookie... Pomegranate Cookie: What is it, Poison Mushroom Cookie? Poison Mushroom Cookie: Is it just me, or is the ground shaking...? I'm feeling dizzy... Licorice Cookie: Didn't I tell you not to eat any more of those mushrooms?! Poison Mushroom Cookie: I promise... It's really shaking... Lilybell Cookie: The grass is trembling too... It can't be... GingerBrave: Oh no! It's back! The Millennial Beast: ...... Licorice Cookie: What's the deal with that deer? Get out of our way! Don't make me summon my army of Licorice Servants! The Millennial Beast: ......! Licorice Cookie: W-wait, why did it start running this way?! Rambutan Cookie: Everyone! Take cover!!!

GingerBrave: Phew... That deer almost sent us flying! Why is it so angry?! Licorice Cookie: Hey! What's up with that thing?! Did you summon it? Pomegranate Cookie: Seeing how it attacked GingerBrave too, I highly doubt that's the case. Let's stay back and watch for now. Lilybell Cookie: I don't know what made you this upset, but you have to calm down... We will not hurt you. Blue Lily Cookie: We'll take care of the Cookies bothering the forest. You don't need to worry. The Millennial Beast: ...... Rambutan Cookie: Are you all okay?! Where did Poison Mushroom go? Poison Mushroom Cookie: I'm heeeere... Rambutan Cookie: Ah! You were hiding among the mushrooms! That's a relief. Pomegranate Cookie: We'll take care of Poison Mushroom Cookie, don't worry about them. Purple Yam Cookie: Sheesh, do we really need to worry about Cookies who speak like that? Rambutan Cookie: They are Cookies, just like us. If they were struck by that deer's horn, there wouldn't be anything left of them either... The Millennial Beast:...... Lilybell Cookie: It seems it has calmed down somewhat. It doesn't seem as enraged as before. Rambutan Cookie: We should head deeper into the forest before it gets angry again. If we don't , we might never get to meet the Millennial Tree. Let's hurry up! Licorice Cookie: It looks like it'll kick us the moment it gets a chance, that's how it looks when it's calm...? Rambutan Cookie: ...... Pomegranate Cookie: ...... Blue Lily Cookie: ...... Purple Yam Cookie: ...I CAN'T TAKE THIS! Why do you keep STARING like that?! Didn't you say we were in a hurry?! Rambutan Cookie: As long as that millennial beast is following us, we don't have much of a choice but to be on our guard. It might become enraged at any moment. GingerBrave: The forest is getting thicker as we go, we need to be careful not to get lost! Always keep an eye on the Cookie in front of you! Poison Mushroom Cookie: Is there a place in this forest with loooooads of shroomies...? I wanna go there... Lilybell Cookie: I never went looking for mushrooms, but I believe there is one place deep in the forest. Poison Mushroom Cookie: Whoa...! Let's go there...! Pomegranate Cookie: Poison Mushroom Cookie, you shouldn't just follow strangers like that. You never know what their intent is. Blue Lily Cookie: Hah, as if Lilybell Cookie would have any hidden intent. For things like that, how about taking a look in the mirror? Licorice Cookie: Heheh... As if you had any idea what we're planning! Blue Lily Cookie: We're showing you the way, don't forget that. Purple Yam Cookie: Let's cut the talking and FIGHT ALREADY! Then the winner gets to meet the Millennial Tree! The Millennial Beast: ...... Licorice Cookie: Why is it looking at us like that> You are friends with that deer, aren't you? Blue Lily Cookie: We haven't seen that expression before either... This is all because you showed up and started causing a commotion! Rambutan Cookie: So it's because of Purple Yam Cookie... Purple Yam Cookie: WHAT?! WHAT DID I DO?! Licorice Cookie: Hehe... Seems like they are busy fighting amongst themselves! This is our opportunity to go! The Millennial Beast: ...... Blue Lily Cookie: I think you should keep your mouth shut. Licorice Cookie: All right, all right! Stop putting your face so close, you stupid deer! You're way too close! Pomegranate Cookie: It seems going quietly is the way to avoid the ire of that deer. GingerBrave: A fork in the road? Which way to go... Licorice Cookie: I guess it's the right path! Logically thinking, it should be the center of the Millennial Forest, right? The path to the right feels darker, so I bet that's where we need to go! Poison Mushroom Cookie: Whoa... Look at all those shroomies... Licorice Cookie: Poison Mushroom Cookie, wait! Don't just run off to the left by yourself! GingerBrave: The road to the left is covered in vines, so maybe we should go to the right? Lilybell Cookie: Everyone, I think we should go to the left. Judging by that acorn tree, I am fairly sure where we are. The right path leads to dangerous creatures. Pomegranate Cookie: ... Since that Cookie is familiar with these woods, we should probably follow them too. Licorice Cookie: Tsk... But then we'll never arrive there first! Poison Mushroom Cookie: Yaaaay...! We're going to all the shroomies...

GingerBrave: Are there yet? Lilybell Cookie: Do you want to rest for a while? Blue Lily Cookie: So you entered our forest, not knowing how deep it goes? If so, it would be better if you went back out now. Purple Yam Cookie: Blue Lily Cookie! Why are you still so wary of us? Blue Lily Cookie: Have(sic) the thought not crossed your hot-headed mind that you have been acting in a way that warrants wariness? Purple Yam Cookie: So it's our fault, is it?! The Millennial Beast: ...... Purple Yam Cookie: ... So we just need to stay quiet? All right, we got it, not stop breathing in my face before y dough gets all soggy! Lilybell Cookie: Don't take it too hard. Blue Lily Cookie is saying that because she worries about you. Blue Lily Cookie: ... Hah, you're just saying that because you're working about them. Poison Mushroom Cookie: So many shroomies all over the place! If only all the other Cookies were here too... We could all eat shroomies and have even more left over... Licorice Cookie: Do you seriously think they'd eat if you gave it to them? Eat them yourself first. Poison Mushroom Cookie: Hehe... So tasty! Freshly picked shroomies are the best,,, Pomegranate Cookie: Just make sure you don't get an upset stomach from eating too many. Lilybell Cookie: That's right. There are more mushrooms here and there in the forest, so you don't need to eat them all right away. Poison Mushroom Cookie: Yay...! More shroomies! The Millennial Beast: ...... Lilybell Cookie: The millennial deer seems to have become a bit more docile. Maybe it feels the Cookies are familiar now. GingerBrave: That's a relief! That means we can up our pace now! GingerBrave: We're getting deeper into the forest! I can't imagine how dwwp the center is. Lilybell Cookie: We haven't been in this far either, since Millennial Tree Cookie turned back into a tree. Blue Lily Cookie: So asking us exactly where the Tree has taken root is not use. We don't know either. Rambutan Cookie: My tribe is out there, probably still turned to stone... How much further do we need to go? Purple Yam Cookie: HEY! I'm tired of all this wariness! I'M GOING FIRST! Licorice Cookie: Says who?! I'm going first! Purple Yam Cookie: You're mistaken is you think such a skinny Cookie could outrun me! Licorice Cookie: WHAT?! All Cookies are flat, you know! How tic are you even to say something like that? Rambutan Cookie: At this rate, you'll make the millennial deer upset again. Purple Yam Cookie: ARGH! Why do I have to put up with a deer like take?! It makes me so... *Mmph..!* Rambutan Cookie: Quiet! The deer is right in front of us! Let's just smile and be friendly! Purple Yam Cookie: Ha... haha... The Millennial Beast: ...... Blue Lily Cookie: I think that just made it even angrier. Rambutan Cookie: Ah.. You think...? Pomegranate Cookie: You didn't come to help GingerBrave, right? Open the path for us. Blue Lily Cookie: Our job is to keep visitors from destroying our forest and bring them to their destination. Poison Mushroom Cookie: Whoa... I found tasty shroomies... Pomegranate Cookie, Licorice Cookie, check this out... Oh... They look busy... Poison Mushroom Cookie: Hey... GingerBrave... Do you want a shroomie...? GingerBrave: Uhm... Is it really okay to eat that? That color makes it seem pretty dangerous... Poison Mushroom Cookie: Then I'll find another one for you... One second... GingerBrave: Hey, wait! Don't go off on your own like that! The Millennial Beast: ......! Blue Lily Cookie: The millennial deer seems to have become enraged yet again. GingerBrave: I just said that to prevent Poison Mushroom Cookie from getting lost! Purple Yam Cookie: I didn't touch a single leaf In the forest, I promise! Rambutan Cookie: Maybe it's not only for bothering the forest that t's getting enraged... The Millennial Beast: ...! ...! GingerBrave: Everyone, watch out! Don't get hit by that horn! Licorice Cookie: Fateful servants! Let's go! Rambutan Cookie: The Licorice Servants are swarming! let's black from the other side! The Millennial Beast: ...... GingerBrave: Yes! The deer is calming down again! Licorice Cookie: HAHAHA! Surely you witnessed the extent of my powers?! Rambutan Cookie: Thanks, Licorice Cookie! Licorice Cookie: I wasn't helping YOU! Blue Lily Cookie: Surely you don't think the deer stopped the assault because It was afraid, right? GingerBrave: How are we supposed to ever meet the Tree like this... We need to keep moving!

GingerBrave: Whew, this is tough! I didn't expect vines being so hard to pass by! Rambutan Cookie: I got the feeling as we entered, but it's slowly getting more narrow every step we take. Licorice Cookie: Tsk, where is the Millennial Tree hiding? I just want to get this over with quickly... GingerBrave: Woah, these vines looks(sic) completely impassable! It looks like this is as far as we can get... Lilybell Cookie: But if we don't take this path, the only remaining way is the one with dangerous beasts... Purple Yam Cookie: We don't have time to stand around and whine! Let's just cut these vines down, what's the problem? GingerBrave: I guess, we did the same thing in the Lotus Paradise come think of it! Purple Yam Cookie: That's right! It's not like these vines contain the power of a dragon either, so one swing of this should clear the path! Licorice Cookie: Hehe... I could deal with vines like that on my own too! Purple Yam Cookie: Let's see who gets through first! The Millennial Beast: ......! Licorice Cookie: Wah! Shoo! Why do you only come up to me?! Rambutan Cookie: I'll clear the way with my spear! Lilybell Cookie: Don't attack the tree. We are responsible for protecting the forest, so let us make the vines move. Purple Yam Cookie: And how would you do that? Wouldn't your powers just make the vines grow more? Pomegranate Cookie: I don't have time for this. Out of the way, let me take care of it. Blue Lily Cookie: Wait, don't touch the vines! Phew... I have no idea what you would do to the forest, so I guess we have no choice but to open the way. Lilybell Cookie: Still, it makes me happy to put our strengths together for the first time in such a long while. Blue Lily Cookie: ... That is true, but... Let's start like we always do. Purple Yam Cookie: How will you clear the path without cutting the vines? Blue Lily Cookie: Hah, just you watch. Lilybell Cookie: Trees! Listen to us. Purple Yam Cookie: Hm? Nothing is happening? Hey, they started growing even more with the music! What are you doing? Lilybell Cookie: Blue Lily Cookie, I'll leave the rest to you. Pomegranate Cookie: She raised her staff... must be some kind of magic. Since we might end up fighting them later, it would be a good idea for us to watch this closely. Licorice Cookie: Hehe... No kind of magic would surprise me! I can outdo them all! Licorice Cookie: What's going on? She's summoning fireflies?

GingerBrave: Wow...! The vines are really unraveling! But where do they go? They seem to all be going the same direction! Rambutan Cookie: They are following the light of the fireflies! So they are here to lead the vines to grow another direction! Lilybell Cookie: I'm glad the vines listened to us. Thank you all for waiting. Blue Lily Cookie: Lilybell Cookie, you know you don't have to treat them so kindly. Rambutan Cookie: You're both amazing! There's one thing I'm curious about though. You two really work well together, but is this something you do often? Blue Lily Cookie: Have you already forgotten? Our village all work in pairs. And among everyone there, we are the best pair. Blue Lily Cookie: We have taken so good care of the village(sic), you would be surprised if you found out. Rambutan Cookie: I see! I have much to learn and take back to our village. Lilybell Cookie: Being paired with someone is really nice. I hope you get to find someone that special to you someday too. Rambutan Cookie: ... I thought I had found that... But I'm no longer sure... Blue Lily Cookie: Regardless of what happened, if you grew apart then there was something not fitting between you. It's not easy to find Cookies that fit together as well as the two of us. Lilybell Cookie: Blue Lily Cookie... Rambutan Cookie seems saddened, shouldn't you be a bit more kind...? Blue Lily Cookie: We have never fought before though, right? We don't need to lie about that for the sake of other Cookies. Lilybell Cookie: That's true, but... Poison Mushroom Cookie: Woah... Look over theeeere...! Poison Mushroom Cookie: Woooah! The shroomies are getting bigger! Even bigger than Licorice Cookie! Blue Lily Cookie: It's because of the tunes of Lilybell Cookie's lyre. Her music makes all the plants happy. Lilybell Cookie: Such praise... Thank you, Blue Lily Cookie. Blue Lily Cookie: I am just saying the truth. You've always been too humble for your own good. Poison Mushroom Cookie: Let's follow the shroommies... One shroomy here, another over there...! Woah...! A mega shroomy...! Pomegranate Cookie: Poison Mushroom Cookie, be careful. Have(sic) no one ever taught you that you shouldn't just eat mushrooms you find in the forest? Poison Mushroom Cookie: But it looks soooo tasty... Woah, there's loads of shroomies over there too...! Licorice Cookie: Hehe, it seems you're being ignored, Pomegranate Cookie. Poison Mushroom Cookie: Wow... That's a big shroomie...! Poison Mushroom Cookie: Shroomie party!!! Purple Yam Cookie: Did that Cookie come here just to look for mushrooms?! Licorice Cookie: Poison Mushroom Cookie, stop jumping around on that mushroom and come down here! Lilybell Cookie: It's nice seeing that Cookie enjoy themselves. This forest is for everyone, after all. Blue Lily Cookie: But if they destroy the mushrooms it would just make the millennial deer enraged yet again... The Millennial Beast: ......

The Shroomie and the Deer

Dialogue

Poison Mushroom Cookie: Yaaay...! Shroomies...!!! Blue Lily Cookie: How long is this going to take? We'll spend the night here at this rate. Pomegranate Cookie: Poison Mushroom Cookie, it's time to keep on moving. Poison Mushroom Cookie: But I wanna plaaaay... Purple Yam Cookie: Let;s go ahead while they are preoccupied! GingerBrave: I'm ready to run! Licorice Cookie: We can't fall behind those Cookies! Poison Mushroom Cookie! Just hurry up and come before we leave you behind! Poison Mushroom Cookie: Okaay...... Just one more jump...! Poison Mushroom Cookie: Oh? Whaaa... Poison Mushroom Cookie: Oh no... There's a hole in the shroomie... Licorice Cookie: What?! Are you okay?! You didn't hurt yourself falling, did you?! Pomegranate Cookie: Come over here. I'll make sure you didn't crumble. The Millennial Beast: ...... Blue Lily Cookie: Should you really only be worrying about Poison Mushroom Cookie right now. It seems you really upset the Millennial Deer. Pomegranate Cookie: I would argue it wasn't Poison Mushroom Cookie's fault, but rather the mushroom being too weak. Blue Lily Cookie: Hah, typical excuse of a Cookie here to destroy our forest. Lilybell Cookie: Nature is not weak just because it breaks. Pomegranate Cookie: Think of it what you want. Poison Mushroom Cookie, thankfully it seems you're in one piece. But since we can't tell how you are on the inside, you need to stay careful. Poison Mushroom Cookie: Okaay... I think I'm fine...! But now I can't see the big shroomie again... Even if I want to(sic)... The Millennial Beast: ......! ......! Poison Mushroom Cookie: Huuh? ... I'm flyyying...! Licorice Cookie: Wait! Where are you taking Poison Mushroom Cookie?! Poison Mushroom Cookie: Pomegranate Cookie... Licorice Cookie...! Where am I going...? Pomegranate Cookie: Licorice Cookie! Stop the Millennial Beast! Licorice Cookie: Ugh...! How is that deer moving so fast?! There's no way a regular Cookie could keep up with that four-hooded menace! Pomegranate Cookie: You would run faster if you stopped talking! The Millennial Beast: ......! GingerBrave: It's heading even deeper into the forest! I don't think it's gonna stop anytime soon! Let's follow it! Rambutan Cookie: Oh?! Where did tis tick fog come from?! I can't see anything! Licorice Cookie: Poison Mushroom Cookie! You can't just start spreading spores, no matter how scared you are! Purple Yam Cookie: Ugh...! My stomach... Lilybell Cookie: Ah... My head hurts... too... I can barely move... Blue Lily Cookie: Lilybell Cookie! Are you okay?! ... Ah, I can't... Pomegranate Cookie: Poison Mushroom Cookie! Tell us what you see so we can follow you! Licorice Cookie: The Millennial Beast is making too much noise for us to hear Poison Mushroom Cookie! Pomegranate Cookie: ... We lost them.

The Search for Poison Mushroom Cookie

Dialogue

Blue Lily Cookie: It seems the Millennial Deer took Poison Mushroom Cookie in a different direction than the Millennial Tree. So what now? Licorice Cookie: Isn't it obvious?! ... What should we do, Pomegranate Cookie? Pomegranate Cookie: We're running out of time for her orders with every passing minuite, but... We cannot just leave Poison Mushroom Cookie behind... Purple Yam Cookie: What are you doing?! Stop wasting time and let's go after them already! Lilybell Cookie: But they will not be able to find Poison Mushroom Cookie by themselves. This forest is even deeper than it seems. Purple Yam Cookie: If we want to win, we have to keep moving when they rest! That's now of many lessons I learned in the battlefield! Blue Lily Cookie: Bringing you to the Millennial Tree as quickly as possible is something I want as well. Come this way. Lilybell Cookie: ... Just a bit further, and we will arrive at the place the Millennial Tree rests. Rambutan Cookie: ...That's a relief. We should start thinking about what to tell the Tree. Purple Yam Cookie: We've almost arrived, why are you all so unenthusiastic? Rambutan Cookie: Is it really okay for us to jut leave Poison Mushroom Cookie behind...? GingerBrave: It bothers me too... Can't we go back to look for them? Blue Lily Cookie: So you're saying we should go back after running all this way? Even though we know this forest well, there's no guarantee this shortcut will be there when we return. Purple Yam Cookie: We'll likely end up getting lost looking for Poison Mushroom Cookie, so isn't better to just look for the Millennial Tree first? Rambutan Cookie: But we're talking about a Cookie... We can't just ignore them being caught like that and do nothing. Purple Yam Cookie: Well... That Cookie didn't seem sharp-minded enough to escape by themselves. GingerBrave: ... All right! Since they came with us this far, we can't just abandon them like this! Blue Lily Cookie: You've been in such a hurry to meet the Tree, and now you run off wasting time... Lilybell Cookie: Blue Lily Cookie. We've never seen the Millennial Deer take someone away before. I trust it, but... Poison Mushroom Cookie must be so afraid... Blue Lily Cookie: That's because of their own mistake. Lilybell Cookie: But you saw for yourself that there were no bad intentions in their actions... If we had said something I;m sure Poison Mushroom Cookie would have apologized... Blue Lily Cookie: ... Fine, don't give me that face. Let's bring them there. Lilybell Cookie: Blue Lily Cookie, thank you for understanding how I feel. I'm sure Poison Mushroom Cookie will be grateful too. Licorice Cookie: Argh! Where did it go?! It didn't even leave hoof prints behind! Pomegranate Cookie: I recognize these entangled vines. We're back to where we came from. Licorice Cookie: Had I know how confusing the path would be, I would've asked those Grass Village Cookies for help... Pomegranate Cookie: Regretting your past mistakes will achieve nothing. Licorice Cookie: I was just saying! You don't have to take everything at face value, you know! GingerBrave: You're still here! What a relief! Licorice Cookie: You're back? What are you scheming this time? GingerBrave: We have something to tell you! Let's stop fighting for a moment! Pomegranate Cookie: Do you seriously think we'd fall for a simple trick like that? No matter how sweet the bait, you severely underestimate us. GingerBrave: I'm serious! We want to help get Poison Mushroom Cookie back! Licorice Cookie: And how are we supposed to trust you? What if you just pretend to help us get Poison Mushroom Cookie back, there have them join your side? Purple Yam Cookie: What?! Here we are offering help, and you STILL complain?! Rambutan Cookie: Everyone, stop fighting. We don't have time for this! Blue Lily Cookie: *Sigh* I'm not sure what I was expecting. Aren't you tired of these endless arguments? Lilybell Cookie: I want to help in any way I can. I feel responsible for what happened... Blue Lily Cookie: You shouldn't blame youeself. Those Cookies entered our forest, ignored our warnings, and acted recklessly. None of those are your fault. Lilybell Cookie: If only I hadn't grown those mushrooms so large, maybe this wouldn't have happened... Pomegranate Cookie, let me know if there is anything you need. Pomegranate Cookie: Seeing the current state of things, I will not reject your offer. Blue Lily Cookie: Lilybell Cookie! This isn't your fault! ... Why are you always ignoring what I tell you? Lilybell Cookie: Ignoring you...? That's not... Purple Yam Cookie: How is this going to work out, when we're not even the only ones fighting...? GingerBrave: Ugh... Will this really be fine...?

Jolly Cooperation?

Dialogue

GingerBrave: Now that we've all gathered together, let's go find Poison Mushroom Cookie! GingerBrave: ... Which way do we need to go? Pomegranate Cookie: Speaking before you think as usual, I see. Blue Lily Cookie: First, we need to track down the Millennial Deer. Spores left by Poison Mushroom Cookie is probably something we could use. Rambutan Cookie: But aren't the spores too small to see...? Lilybell Cookie: I can ask the mushrooms to move the spores for us. GingerBrave: You can do that? That's amazing! Lilybell Cookie: I haven't tried it. but I'm sure it will work. Pomegranate Cookie: Let's get moving, instead of wasting time with useless chatter. Purple Yam Cookie: Are you even aware we're helping you out right now? Seems there's no sweetness whatsoever in your dough! Blue Lily Cookie: Could you all just stay quiet? We're the once helping all of you out, if you haven't forgotten... Rambutan Cookie: Of course we haven't! We're extremely thankful. Right, Purple Yam Cookie? Purple Yam Cookie: It's true that we're navigating the forest thanks to them, but... She seems more sensitive than usual... Lilybell Cookie: The spores are flying this way, to the right of this oak. Rambutan Cookie: So in the end we're going that way, huh. Let's just hope we don't run into any of those dangerous beasts. Purple Yam Cookie: Even if we do, we just have to beat them up! GingerBrave: That's right! If we all work together, we don't have to be afraid of anything! Blue Lily Cookie: Don't speak as if Lilybell Cookie and I are part of your group. That's your problem, not ours. Lilybell Cookie: Bule Lily Cookie... Do you really need to be so harsh...? Those beasts are dangerous, but as long as we stay quiet we'll be able to pass safely. Purple Yam Cookie: Where's the danger you talked about? It's just a regular dark, quiet forest! Licorice Cookie: HAHAHA! I'll leave this to my faithful servants! GingerBrave: *Sniff Sniff* What's that smell? It's horrible! Purple Yam Cookie: It smells like Jellies months past expiry! It's a smell you never forget! Licorice Cookie: Huh? What's this? Rambutan Cookie: Ugh... This must be where that nasty smell is coming from! It just looks like a regular flower though... GingerBrave: Popcorn Cookie said that dangerous things keep happening in movies after someone touches something they shouldn't! Purple Yam Cookie: Don't jinx us like that! Licorice Cookie: Won't the smell go away if we just get rid of this flower? Blue Lily Cookie: DON'T TOUVH THAT! You have no idea what happens if you do! Licorice Cookie: Too late! He he he! GingerBrave: Oh no! What's going on?! The ground is shaking! Rambutan Cookie: Did the ground get weaker too...?! Lilybell Cookie: No...! This noise will...! GingerBrave: What are those?! There's four of them! Lilybell Cookie: They are beasts living nearby...! We didn't bother them, so why...?! Licorice Cookie: SHOO! Go away! Pomegranate Cookie: ... Licorice Cookie, lower your scythe. You waving that around is spreading the aroma of the flower, making the smell even stronger. Licorice Cookie: Those things are running at me, what am I supposed to do?! Rambutan Cookie: The monsters' attacks are getting more fierce! Everyone, get away! Lilybell Cookie: They are getting more agitated the more that flower is moving! They must be affected by the scent...! Purple Yam Cookie: Now that we know, we can start FIGHTING! Licorice Cookie: He he... Come to my aid, my licorice servants! Purple Yam Cookie: HEY! We're fighting those beasts, why are you attacking me?! Licorice Cookie: You were in the way! Rambutan Cookie: I'll take care of that giant spear-wielding bee! HIYAH!!! Pomegranate Cookie: Have you not considered that flailing your spear like that might get us hurt too? Rambutan Cookie: Ah! Sorry... The bee is flying toward us! Everyone, take cover! Lilybell Cookie: We'll all get injured at this rate...! But we can't attack the forest... What should we do... Blue Lily Cookie: Lilybell Cookie! Stay behind me! You can't fight, you know that! Rambutan Cookie: Why are they aiming for Lilybell Cookie?! Maybe they know she can't fight back! Blue Lily Cookie: No...! I guess we have no choice... Follow me! I know a place we can go!

A Decisive Discord

Dialogue

GingerBrave: *Pant Pant* Blue Lily Cookie, why did you stop here? Have we arrived already? Rambutan Cookie: Wow, so pretty... There are so many fireflies! It seems the monsters don't come this way. Blue Lily Cookie: That's because this area is guarded by the fireflies... Only Lilybell Cookie and I have been here before... Lilybell Cookie: But thanks to you we were able to escape safely! Blue Lily Cookie: Hah, of course. If I wasn't there to help, you would've been finished by now. Purple Yam Cookie: I would've been able to beat them all if I was by myself! If Licorice Cookie wasn't there to get in my way... Licorice Cookie: Well if YOU didn't get in MY way, my servants would've made quick work of them too! Rambutan Cookie: We were lucky no one get hurt... Pomegranate Cookie: You think that's good luck? It must be comfortable living with whatever simple ingredients you have in your dough. Lilybell Cookie: The fireflies are anxious. Everyone, how about we calm down a bit...? Blue Lily Cookie: Lilybell Cookie, let them argue. They are the ones in a hurry. Lilybell Cookie: But I want everyone to get along. Blue Lily Cookie: You still think we need to worry about those Cookies? Lilybell Cookie: It's just... The fireflies... Rambutan Cookie: But the only way out is the way we came, right? So we'll have to go back out to where the monsters are. Blue Lily Cookie: If it was a mess before, it would be foolish to expect returning there to end any other way. GingerBrave: Uhm... Couldn't it would if we all try to cooperate? Pomegranate Cookie: If it was that easy, we wouldn't have needed to come here. Rambutan Cookie: Let's go with GingerBrave's plan. We'll probably need to fight the Millennial Deer when we get there, so some practice wouldn't hurt, right? Purple Yam Cookie: We couldn't even fight on our own, do we really have time to practice teamwork...? Rambutan Cookie: We'll have to try to find out. Let's start with planning! Lilybell Cookie: How about luring them away instead of fighting? Blue Lily Cookie: But what if we end up facing more later? We don't know what's waiting in this part of the forest either, remember? Lilybell Cookie: I'm sure we'll find a way. I just hope on one gets hurt... Blue Lily Cookie: But you're not being careful yourself! Have you already forgotten you almost ended up in danger moments ago? Lilybell Cookie: But I'm safe now. Blue Lily Cookie: You're always like this. Always thinking of everyone while forgetting those closest to you. Blue Lily Cookie: *Sigh* Maybe it's best if we go separately until these Cookies leave our forest. Lilybell Cookie: But we've always been together... Blue Lily Cookie: That's why I want to do this separately. I'm not sure I can keep being a pair with you if this goes on. Lilybell Cookie: Blue Lily Cookie... Licorice Cookie: That Cookie sure gets scary when she's angry, huh... GingerBrave: ... We should probably hurry back out there.

A Joint Strike!

Dialogue

Licorice Cookie: Sheesh... It's so dark here there's no telling when or where monsters will jump us! Purple Yam Cookie: You aren't afraid already, are you? Hide behind me if you're scared! Licorice Cookie: Scared? ME? YOU'RE the one who looks nervous, swinging that club around! Blue Lily Cookie: Are you trying to let the entire forest know we're back? Licorice Cookie: Uhm, that's not... GingerBrave: Blue Lily Cookie's expression worries me... Is she really okay? Blue Lily Cookie: Seeing how you're idly chatting away instead of preparing to fight, it seems you want to be chased away again. Rambutan Cookie: Everyone, get ready! They're back! Blue Lily Cookie: Let's begin. I'll call the fireflies. GingerBrave: Wow! The monsters are really following the fireflies! Rambutan Cookie: The darkness is making the fireflies even more distracting! Let's go! Pomegranate Cookie: It's my turn now. Stand aside, if you don't want to get cursed. Purple Yam Cookie: Why do I get the feeling that's what you want to happen... Pomegranate Cookie: It can be arranged, it that's what you want. Rambutan Cookie: Haha! ... That was a joke, right? When Pomegranate Cookie's spell finished, it's our turn to go. Pomegranate Cookie:Perhaps you should focus on that irritating bee flying around. Pomegranate Cookie: Watch as they fall to the ground. The curse was successful. Purple Yam Cookie: Already collapsing? That's WEAK! My turn to give them a proper send-off! GAAAAAH! GingerBrave: Why does that toad keep throwing mushrooms?! Rambutan Cookie: That smell... They are poisonous mushrooms! Don't touch them! Licorice Cookie: If Poison Mushroom Cookie was here, they would probably get along great... Maybe it's for the best that they aren't here... Licorice Cookie: Hey, toad! You won't be able to throw my servants! Licorice Cookie: MWAHA! They don't know what to do! Rambutan Cookie: It seems the bark on that treat is too rough for the licorice servants to hold on! Let's help them out! GingerBrave: Hey, stop throwing those rocks! We would crumble right away if we were hit by one of those! Rambutan Cookie: I'll block them! Our village is used to fighting things larger than ourselves! GingerBrave: Alright! They're fleeing! Rambutan Cookie: But were there really only three of them? What happened to the giant mantis? GingerBrave: I didn't see it this time around, so maybe it went somewhere else? Purple Yam Cookie: Keep your guards up. It might be waiting in an ambush. Rambutan Cookie: By the way, why is that giant flower over in those bushes shaking so much? Did you do that, Lilybell Cookie? Lilybell Cookie: That isn't me... I've never seen that flower before... Pomegranate Cookie: Seems like it'll bloom at any moment, but I have a bad feeling about this. GingerBrave: Woah! It looked like a large flower, but it was the mantis?! Rambutan Cookie: Watch out for those front legs! They are extremely strong and sharp! Licorice Cookie: He he... Surely they can't be sharper than my scythe! Licorice Cookie: Ugh... How can something made out of sugar be so strong... Purple Yam Cookie: Something as thin as you have(sic) no chance against me! I'LL TAKE CARE OF THIS! GAAAAAAAH!!! Purple Yam Cookie: You're stronger than I thought...! Licorice Cookie: You're barely holding on yourself, what do you mean one each?! Purple Yam Cookie: What did you say?! As soon as I take care of this one, it's your turn next! Purple Yam Cookie: GAH! Licorice Cookie: Heh... Look at you tumble! Rambutan Cookie: This isn't the time to fight among ourselves! Blue Lily Cookie: *Sigh* Looks like I have no choice but to summon more fireflies. Rambutan Cookie: Let's take on one leg each while it is distracted by the fireflies! GingerBrave: I'll help too! Purple Yam Cookie: Stay back! Your candy cane stands no chance against this! GingerBrave: But you're giving your everything fighting, I can't just stand and do nothing! GingerBrave: Wait, why are the trees moving? Is it another monster coming?! Rambutan Cookie: The trees are growing around the monsters, preventing them from moving freely! Lilybell Cookie, you did that, right?! GingerBrave: The trees have formed a fence! The monsters are running to avoid getting trapped! Rambutan Cookie: Thanks you(sic) Lilybell Cookie, we don't need to fight them any more! Lilybell Cookie: I just wish that this ends without anyone getting hurt. I dated on my own, but I'm glad you appreciate it. Lilybell Cookie: ... It seems Blue Lily Cookie doesn't feel the same though... Blue Lily Cookie: Since when do you care about how I feel? Go ahead and do what you want. Lilybell Cookie: ...... Lilybell Cookie: We're getting closer to the deepest parts of the forest... GingerBrave: Lilybell Cookie looks so gloomy... Rambutan Cookie: I feel bad, since it all started because of us... Purple Yam Cookie: Hey! Did you see that red flash between there(sic) trees?! It's moving that way! Rambutan Cookie: You're right! It's the deer! I can hear a voice too! Licorice Cookie: Poison Mushroom Cookie! Are you okay?! Pomegranate Cookie: Stay quiet, the deer might still be agitated. We need to approach carefully. Pomegranate Cookie: ...?! But that's...?

Reunion With Poison Mushroom Cookie

Dialogue

Poison Mushroom Cookie: Woah... Look at all those shroomies...! GingerBrave: The Millennial Deer is running really fast with Poison Mushroom Cookies(sic) on its back! Pomegranate Cookie: We should hurry up and attack before we lose sight of it again. Licorice Cookie: Poison Mushroom Cookie! Stay put! We're gonna save you! Rambutan Cookie: Wait! Listen to what Poison Mushroom Cookie is saying! Poison Mushroom Cookie: Yaaaay!! Faster...! Go faster...! GingerBrave: ... Is Poison Mushroom Cookie playing with the Millennial Deer...? They look so... happy? Licorice Cookie: What? Are you sure they aren't just unable to get off?! Pomegranate Cookie: Poison Mushroom Cookie does look like they are enjoying themselves. That doesn't seem like someone being attacked. Purple Yam Cookie: So why did we have to go all this way then...? Couldn't it just have given the Cookie in a ride back where we started?! Rambutan Cookie: Look at all the mushrooms... Who would've thought there would be a place like this deep in the Millennial Forest? Lilybell Cookie: We haven't been here before either. It seems the deer brought them here on purpose. Lilybell Cookie: Ah...! Maybe because Poison Mushroom Cookie likes mushrooms. I know the Millennial Deer wasn't mean to Cookies. Purple Yam Cookie: You say that, but I distinctly remember almost getting impaled by that giant horn... Poison Mushroom Cookie: Oh...? Heeeey... It's Pomegranate Cookie and Licorice Cookie...! Hey, Deery... Let's take a break... The Millennial Beast: ...... Poison Mushroom Cookie: When did you all get here...? Licorice Cookie: How can you be so carefree and smiling? Have you any idea what we went through to find you?! Poison Mushroom Cookie: Hehe... But it was really fun...! Deery showed me all these amazing places... Purple Yam Cookie: So we went looking for no reason... Rambutan Cookie: Still, it's a relief Poison Mushroom Cookie is back in one piece! Right, Pomegranate Cookie...? Rambutan Cookie: Wait, what are you doing? What are you doing with that pomegranate fruit...? GingerBrave: Are you going to put a curse on the Millennial Tree again?! Pomegranate Cookie: There's no longer any need to travel together from here. So isn't it logical for us to return to searching for the Millennial Tree? GingerBrave: You should at least tell us you're going! Pomegranate Cookie: Haha... After all the times you've faced your enemies, don't you think you might be the one not learning your lessons? Licorice Cookie: Pomegranate Cookie! Leave those twerps to me! Poison Mushroom Cookie, come here! Poison Mushroom Cookie: Okaaay... Purple Yam Cookie: Why, you... We spent all this time trying to save you, and this is what we get?! Where is the Millennial Tree anyway?! COME OUT ALREADY! Rambutan Cookie: I doubt that the Tree will show itself just because we're shouting loudly... But since this is the deepest part of the forest, let's start by looking for old tree trunks! Pomegranate Cookie: It's futile. My curse will reach all trees in this place. Purple Yam Cookie: If those are free to do as they please, then why can't we?! GAAAH! It makes me ANGRY! Lilybell Cookie: Everyone... Can't we go look for the Millennial Tree together? ... It seems everyone is too busy fighting to listen to me... Lilybell Cookie: Blue Lily Cookie... Can't you do something to stop them...? Blue Lily Cookie: ... This is exactly what I'm talking about! Blue Lily Cookie: Always the other Cookies this, the other Cookies that! If those other Cookies make you so bothered, then just go to them! The Millennial Beast: ...... GingerBrave: Hey, everyone... The Millennial Deer is staring at us... Blue Lily Cookie: I have no reason to stay here. Good luck with fighting or whatever's left for you to do. GingerBrave: It looks like the deer is aiming for you first though... Lilybell Cookie: Blue Lily Cookie... Be careful... Blue Lily Cookie: You should worry about yourself. Keep putting everyone else first and you'll just end up crumbling. The Millennial Beast: ......!

Duel with the Millennial Deer

Dialogue

Rambutan Cookie: It seems much faster than before! Poison Mushroom Cookie: Why is it angry...? It looks so happy when it ran with me... Pomegranate Cookie: It's too fast for my curses to hit...! Stay behind me, Poison Mushroom Cookie! GingerBrave: Blue Lily Cookie! Watch your left! Blue Lily Cookie: ...! Ugh...! GingerBrave: Blue Lily Cookie collapsed?! It looks dangerous, but why isn't she calling more fireflies? Rambutan Cookie: She isn't moving as fast as before...! She must have used her strength fighting those monsters earlier! Lilybell Cookie: What do I do... Blue Lily Cookie: Don't come here! You need to take care of yourself first! The Millennial Beast: ......! GingerBrave: The Millennial Deer is running towards Blue Lily Cookie again! Rambutan Cookie: She's too far away for us to help...! Lilybell Cookie: No! Blue Lily Cookie...!! GingerBrave: What's this storm?! The air is filled with white seeds! Rambutan Cookie: That's dandelion seeds! Lilybell Cookie must have called them! Blue Lily Cookie: Lilybell Cookie... Lilybell Cookie: Are you okay?! You aren't hurt, are you?! Blue Lily Cookie: You came to save me... But you look pretty worn out yourself... Lilybell Cookie: I'm a little dizzy for suddenly using my power so much, but I'll be fine. As long as you're okay. Blue Lily Cookie: ... Aren't you mad at me? Even after I yelled at you... Lilybell Cookie: Not at all. I know you said it because you worry about me. Blue Lily Cookie: ... *Sniffle*... Purple Yam Cookie: Huh? Is she... ... She's crying? Blue Lily Cookie: I'm sorry... I wasn't really angry with you... Seeing you get along with those other Cookies, I just... I was afraid you were going to leave our village... Leave me... Lilybell Cookie: I wouldn't do that. I'll always stay by your side. Blue Lily Cookie: You always get along with everyone, and everyone likes you... I couldn't stop that anxious feeling... And then I kept saying all those things, even though I know you'd like me less for it... Lilybell Cookie: You are the most important thing in the world to me. The reason I care so much about this forest is because you're the one protecting it. Lilybell Cookie: The reason I wanted the other Cookies to reconcile earlier too, was because I wanted the fireflies to calm down... I though if they did, you would feel more at ease too... Blue Lily Cookie: Lilybell Cookie... *Sob*... Lilybell Cookie: We're a pair until the end, right? Purple Yam Cookie: The Millennial Deer seems to be waiting for a moment to attack, isn't it best for you to start running if you're done talking? Rambutan Cookie: It doesn't seem interesting in attacking... Wait.. Maybe it doesn't attack unless we are fighting? Pomegranate Cookie: You seem to be thinking too highly of your own importance. Rambutan Cookie: Hear me out! The only moments so far the Millennial Deer has been still, was when we stopped fighting! GingerBrave: Oh... That's right! Licorice Cookie: So was it so kind to Poison Mushroom Cookie because they never fought with anyone...? Pomegranate Cookie: Since we need to defeat that deer to have a chance of finding the Millennial Tree, maybe it's worth a try. GingerBrave: Let's all try to attack together! This time it's bound to go better than the last! Rambutan Cookie: As soon as it starts running here, we all attack as one! Licorice Cookie: Ugh... Just this once! Purple Yam Cookie: LET'S GO! GAAAAAAAH!!! Rambutan Cookie: Woah! Right on the mark! We did it! GingerBrave: ... Or did we? The deer suddenly got surrounded by light...! Purple Yam Cookie: It's changing colors?! What if it's charging some kind of ultimate attack to take us all out in one go?! The Millennial Beast: ...... Lilybell Cookie: No...! That's the deer's original form...! Rambutan Cookie was right...! GingerBrave: What a relief! Now we can really search for the Millennial Tree! Rambutan Cookie: The roots are moving! They are all moving in the same direction, is something controlling them?! Purple Yam Cookie: Is someone attacking us again?! GingerBrave: Oh?! The Millennial Deer is running that way! Millennial Tree Cookie: It's been a while since I last saw a Cookie.

Mercy of the Millennial Tree

Dialogue

GingerBrave: Millennial Tree Cookie! We finally get to meet you! Millennial Tree Cookie: What brings you to such a distant place? GingerBrave: Millennial Tree Cookie, we need your help! We need a branch of like! Longan Dragon Cookie has turned all the Cookies into stone! Millennial Tree Cookie: While I was aware the dragons were planning something, I did not know that was their way of seeing it through... You must have gone through many hardships. Licorice Cookie: Pomegranate Cookie, shouldn't we start attacking...? We're here to get rid of Millennial Tree Cookie, remember?! Pomegranate Cookie: Wait. If we act too rashly, we might face a counterattack. Rambutan Cookie: Why are you staying here? Could you not come help our village too? Millennial Tree Cookie: While I truly feel sorry for what has happened to your village, mu strength has not yet returned in full. Millennial Tree Cookie: I traveled to many corners of the world, through countless places to get here. I witnessed both the birth and the loss of life many times over. Millennial Tree Cookie: Many villages are suffering due to the power of the earth waning. Millennial Tree Cookie: That is how I arrived in the Grass Village too. This forest was in an especially dangerous state. My strength alone was not enough to restore the village directly. Millennial Tree Cookie: So I taught them the power that can be found in working with other Cookies toward a common goal. That power was what restored the village in the end. Millennial Tree Cookie: Since then, I have been resting comfortably in this forest. It was not me helping the Cookies, but the Cookies helping me. Lilybell Cookie: Thank you for saying that... Millennial Tree Cookie... Blue Lily Cookie: We promise to continue getting along with each other. Millennial Tree Cookie: As for you... I am familiar with one of you. The one who stained me with darkness. Pomegranate Cookie: ...... Millennial Tree Cookie: Yet I watched, and saw how you cared for Poison Mushroom Cookie. Licorice Cookie: Huh? How did you know?! Millennial Tree Cookie: This forest is my domain. Nothing here escapes my eyes. I have been watching you since the moment since you stepped foot inside. Millennial Tree Cookie: I also watched how the Grass Village Cookies tried to stop you. Rambutan Cookie: So that's why the vines moved... Millennial Tree Cookie: I plan on staying here a while longer, but I have a gift for you. Millennial Tree Cookie: I sincerely wish it helps you in your endeavors. GingerBrave: Wow...! Thanks! Licorice Cookie: But it's a seed...? Not a branch? Millennial Tree Cookie: At this moment, that seed contains no power. However, you will be able to make it blossom into a flower. Millennial Tree Cookie: Depending on your hearts, it might turn into a rotten seed, forever unable to sprout. It may also end up bearing enormous fruits, covering the entire world. Purple Yam Cookie: Is it really okay to give Dark Enchantress Cookie's followers something with that power? Millennial Tree Cookie: Time judges everyone equally. Given time, even the results of my actions will be known. Rambutan Cookie: Everyone... Please wait just a little longer! Millennial Tree Cookie: May time watch over your journey, young ones. GingerBrave: Let's head back to the Tropical Soda Islands! Poison Mushroom Cookie: I want more shroomies before we leave... Licorice Cookie: We spent all that time trying to find you and you're still just enjoying yourself...? Pomegranate Cookie: ...... Licorice Cookie: Pomegranate Cookie, why are you being so quiet? Pomegranate Cookie: To give a part of itself away so easily... The Millennial Tree is softer than I thought. Licorice Cookie: MWAHAH! That's just good for us! We succeeded with Dark Enchantress Cookie's orders, right? Pomegranate Cookie: You think this is a success? You sure have low standards. Licorice Cookie: What?! Pomegranate Cookie: The reason she wanted us to bring back a branch was for her to gain the Millennial Tree's powers. Pomegranate Cookie: Don't you even remember your orders? The Millennial Tree's powers, or the powers to subdue the Tree. Licorice Cookie: Well, I guess you're right... Pomegranate Cookie: But you heard the Tree, this seed contains no power. Being able to become anything is no different from not being able to become anything in the end. Pomegranate Cookie: I wouldn't being something we don't understand how dangerous it is in front of her(sic)... Licorice Cookie: Huh?! You're just throwing the seed away?! Pomegranate Cookie: I've already placed a curse on it. If the Millennial Tree is everywhere in this forest, what would happen if that seed starts to sprout? Pomegranate Cookie: I look forward to the day we return.
