After surviving a recent assassination attempt in the capital, Eizo worries that he and his family might someday need to flee from enemies trying to invade the forge. They decide to investigate a possible escape route out of the Black Forest, and that can mean only one thing-it's time for a camping trip! But given the forest's dangerous reputation and the threat of another attempt on Eizo's life, this journey through the wilderness could be quite harrowing. As they trek deeper into the murky woods, they stumble across Latifa, a spirit who asks for help with a deadly situation: A tree monster is lurking in the shadows and wreaking havoc on anything that wanders nearby! With the lives of forest dwellers on the line, can the resident smith and his family grind their arboreal foe to a pulp? Or will this new, powerful enemy utterly stump them?
