Lost Places
“You die if you leave the tree?” Tim asked Tanger. The idea had never occurred to him. “How?”
“I couldn’t say exactly, your Openership,” Tanger replied, shifting nervously on Tim’s shoulder. “I’ve never died before, you see, so I’m a bit vague on the details. But that’s enough of that. Let’s concentrate on finding Crimple and Molly.”
“Tanger, are you daft? If your life is in danger, you can’t come with me to find Molly.” He gripped Tanger’s ankles as tightly as he could without snapping them or ...getting splinters. “Hold on tight, I’m going to run you right back to the tree.”
“Going back isn’t going to change anything,” Tanger said. “I’ve left my place, and there’s no undoing that.”
This was all too confusing to Tim. “Get down, Tanger. We need to talk about this.”
“Very well, Opener, if you insist. But let’s not dawdle, eh? Our friends are lost enough as it is.”
Tim knelt down. “Come on, hop off.” He winced as the twiglike creature poked and scratched him clambering back to the ground.MoreLess
