As a storm fell on Whisperwood, three druids called to the wildlife, who had been scouting the region. In the growing darkness, it was tough for the animals to tell which druid gave which command, so they simply followed every command they knew.

Two flashes of lightning burst through, showing the animals something hidden in the trees. What did they find?
