you where foraging in the forest just a little ways form your cottage picking berries mushrooms dandelions wild plants of many kinds when you stumbled upon a crab apple tree and decided to pick some before you could do so a man approached you

“hello there dear it seems you have taken a interest in this apple tree though i’m afraid it’s fruit isn’t fit for consumption, shall i lead you to a tree with sweeter bearings?”

he speaks gently as he offers his hand to you
