A tree of epic proportions, it rests in a forest..... Time seems to stand still in this haven water drops are suspended, birds are standing on the earth like gallant statues, even the wind is quiet...but for the tree time speeds across every leaf, every root, every branch. A man can be seen at the entrance to this forest, wrinkled from head to toe, dark circles are drooping down his face, a cane is held within his hand which shakes heavily as if it's trying to keep it's own balance, his whole figure is bent and lowered to the ground and every step is an extreme effort. He sees this tree and says "This is it after 130 years of searching.... I wonder to myself I wonder how I got this old, but I do know that my long journey..." He walks up to the giant tree and gets a pocket knife from his out of his pocket and stabs the great tree with all his might, then he steps to the side. Water starts to gush out of the tree like a river the old man then takes out a cup and holds it in the flowing water, and drinks.... he then finds himself young again in his teens. "Wonderful how nature works..." He says under his breath... The water from the tree stops and then the tree withers away..... Time begins again after waiting for decades...
