You huff and puff, pulling yourself up the wide trunk of the huge oak tree. After this day, you promise yourself that you will never, ever again climb another tree. The sinews in your arms begin to cramp, and you cry out to Rikale and Kalika, warning them that you must stop and rest, or risk falling on your head. The two pixies glance at each other, giggling, but comply.
You ask your two guides what could possibly be at the top of this tree that is so special? 'Another ginnal,' Rikale tells you with a smile. 'Oh look, here he comes now!' A slight thump on the branch you are resting on causes you to start, looking over. Yes, there is another ginnal, this one looking just as cute and playful as Kali, down at the bottom of the tree. You hold out your hand to the small ginnal.
'This is Roark,' Kalika says to you. 'He is the male ginnal; Kali is his sister, not his mate. So, unfortunately, we will not be having baby ginnals in the near future.' The pixie sighs sadly. You sigh as well; these are animals one could fall in love with. You pet Roark, and he leans into your caress. Rikale giggles.
You tease Roark with a small twig. He bats at it like a housecat, but what a small housecat he would be! You scratch him behind the ears and he rubs against you. A fly flits past his nose, and he leaps onto a higher branch, chasing it. You laugh along with the pixies at the ginnal's antics. He disappears up the tree.
Ginnals can be adopted on Gavania
