As Moonlight, Sea Fairy and Fire Spirit were waiting at a spot they had all agreed to meet up, including Millennial Tree and Wind Archer, planning to talk about the new issue going around earthbread.

Lately, many cookies have had their lives taken by an unknown monster, with no known weakness, including fire that burnt as hot as lava, harsh waves from the ocean, eternal slumber spells, and even wind archer's arrows. Nothing worked, and so they had decided to meet up and try to discuss a plan to keep cookies safe.

As they waited, a bit worried, Millennial Tree finally showed up, holding Wind Archer's scarf in his hands.

He had scars on his cheek and arms, likely to have been attacked by the monster they needed to talk about, since no one could land such hits, especially with Wind Archer protecting him.

He pants, out of breath, but eventually started to speak through breaths.

"I-I... Friends... Wind Archer lost his... Life... Trying to protect me- the monster... It had come after us... I-I'm sorry..."

He apologized, feeling so much guilt for having Wind Archer lose his life. He felt like it was his fault.
