Chapter 2: The Gathering

The Keepers of the Tree gathered in their great hall, each one deep in thought. They knew that they needed to find a way to protect the Tree from the darkness that was coming, but they had no idea where to begin.

It was then that the youngest Keeper, a wizard named Taren, spoke up. "I have been studying the ancient tomes," he said, "and I have discovered a spell that could help us."

The other Keepers looked at Taren skeptically. He was young and inexperienced, and they were not sure they could trust him.

But Taren was insistent. "The spell is powerful," he said, "but it will require all of our magic to cast it. If we work together, we can protect the Tree from any threat."

The other Keepers considered this for a moment, and then nodded their agreement. They knew that they needed to do everything in their power to protect the Tree, and if Taren's spell could help them do that, then they were willing to try.
