1Deep in Fangorn Forest stands a thirteenth Ent -- Leaflock -- so long rooted that he has forgotten his own name. He will wake for the truffles of the deep loam, which hide from eyes and hands alike: only a boar's nose can find one. I am to take the shape of a boar among his roots, root up a truffle while its earth-smell is still on it, then put off the beast-shape and cast Nature's Balance so that it covers Leaflock himself. A truffle out of the earth dies quickly, and the old Ent will not be troubled more than once in a day and a night.q_ent_adru
2I have a truffle of Fangorn, and it is already beginning to go. Back to Leaflock, out of the boar-shape, and cast Nature's Balance over his roots before it crumbles.q_ent_pick
3Leaflock, the thirteenth Ent of Fangorn, has asked for a concert instead: two songs to bring him up out of the root-sleep and back to his own name. He leads -- I am to watch his bark and play only when he stirs, and he will weigh my learning as closely as my music. One false stage and he goes down again for a day and a night.q_ent_abrd
4finalLeaflock woke. The thirteenth Ent of Fangorn straightened out of an age of root-sleep, remembered his name, and gave me a horn cup of ent-draught out of his own heartwood before settling again -- not so deep, this time.q_ent_abrd, q_ent_adru, q_ent_cbrd, q_ent_ccd, q_ent_cdone, q_ent_cdru, q_ent_drink, q_ent_hb, q_ent_inc, q_ent_pick, q_ent_song, q_ent_spawn, stop_spellcheat
