Eventually, they reached the Elven village perched atop the connecting gargantuan acacia trees. The houses were built so high up that most of their roofs breached through the tree's crowns itself!
"Welcome back to our village, sir Keo. Please make yourselves at home in our municipal hall. Lady Farren just has a few matters to deal with before she can meet with you."
The male Elf led him back to the largest tree in the village where a grand and ornate building was carved inside the very bark itself. He walked up the perfectly braided and twisted roots of the tree that served as the stairs, leading him up to the main Municipal Hall.
Once inside, he saw a resplendent hall filled with embellished wooden desks made out of thousand-year-old barks, chairs and sofas made out of a single slab of wood, and tall statues of stalwart images of mighty Elves. It was quite an ethereal sight, which was illuminated by natural sunlight coming from carefully placed windows along the tree's bark.
