Escaping inside the forest, Scaly didn't waste any time as she quickly found a familiar hollowed out tree to hide inside of-
Thumb~
Unfortunately, given that her size had increased by quite a bit following her last evolution, she was no longer small enough to fit inside a hollowed-out tree that she would have normally been able to hide inside of. Forcing her to get back up again to search for somewhere else to hide from the mountain gnolls.
After all, although she had managed to successfully make it to the forest and it would be far more difficult for the mountain gnolls to find her or the rest of the monsters that had similarly rushed into the forest, she also understood that they should still be entering the forest… and if she couldn't find a place to hide away in, she would still get found by the mountain gnolls.
