Unyko leads you to a small portal "I can guide you at first, but a few of the inhabitants need special care during most of the day, so…" she flutters over to the portal and waits for you to follow. You approach cautiously, uncertain of this strange mode of transportation "Well? Go ahead, it wont hurt." She smiles as you hesitantly reach out a finger to touch the swirling blue portal…

A soon as you had touched it, you found yourself staring at a completely different scene. First of all, it isn't midday anymore, but early morning, the sun low over the horizon to your left. Also, instead of a small town, there stands before you an extensive forest that reached as far as the eye could see. You seem to be on the highest hill or mountain around, and have an excellent view of the path ahead of you. A few treeless patches show the meadows that Unyko had told you about. 'That must be where the creatures live…' you think to yourself.

"Lovely, isn't it?" You jump at the sound of Unyko's voice, and turn around quickly. She smiles at you "Sall we?" the tiny Uni'Dragon~Fly points toward the trail head and lands on your shoulder pointing the way. You smile in return and start off down the hill along the clearly marked path.

Sometime later…

You stop at the edge of the first small meadow and look around. There doesn't seem to be much there, so you look at your shoulder where Unyko is sitting. She shakes her head "No, nothing here. Just a rest stop before we meet the first inhabitant." She gestures to a bench to your right, and a path at the other side of the meadow. "Would you like to rest first, or go on from here? The next meadow is right around the bend in that path over there…" You decide to go on, it wasn't really a long walk downhill, and you were curious about the kinds of creatures Unyko fosters here…

You start off for the trail…
