The tree and talk
[Snake Tribe]
Everyone inside the tribe looked in wonder as their king dragged a weird-looking tree seemingly towards the snake castle.
"I wonder why his majesty is taking that tree and that too with leaves intact?" Asked one staring at Blake.
"It's probably for firewood. The cold season is just starting and soon no one will be able to go out" replied the other one.
"But the tree his Majesty is carrying seems damp and that particular one doesn't catch fire easily" commented the other one.
"Who knows, maybe it is for smoking the meat"
Chatters and whispers like these went on and on as Blake passed through them.
