Arboreal Sapling
Chopping this guardian down doesn't end the danger — its fall crashes over everything nearby, and axes only make it angrier going down.
An arboreal sapling is a young, ambulatory tree—a slow, stubborn guardian of the deep woods that lashes out with knotted limbs and, when felled, comes crashing down on whatever stands beneath it.
