our house is sorta built into this old willow. it's three stories, we've got all sorts of systems going to make it livable. the specifics don't matter really, as long as you get the vibe of the tree.
huge thing, been around for hundreds of years easy. it doesn't bloom very often, but sometimes in spring it gets these pink flowers all over. Finn loved 'em.

[ Weird to think about. Not bad weird, just... weird. About as weird as not living outside felt, here on the ship. ]
is how you grew up why you don't like the outdoors?
