Vireline revealed herself in front of her main body, with Aldrian already appearing beside her.
All the beasts that heard her voice looked up and saw the two of them floating side by side. They wondered what was happening, as something like this had never occurred before.
The beasts only knew Vireline's figure as the guardian of this thing and wondered what had happened to that thing, to cause an appearance like this.
It was not surprising that the beasts believed Vireline was a separate entity from the tree. They thought she was the tree's guardian, not its spirit, since the idea of her being a spirit had never occurred to them.
All they knew was that this guardian figure had been there for a long time, even during the era of their own grandfathers.
"I have an announcement to make to all beings in this region," Vireline said as she looked into the distance, where many beasts were watching her.
