The tracks lead deeper into the forest. Judging by the disturbed leaves and branches on the trees, it stands about three meters in height. However, there are marks higher than that as well, suggesting some long appendages - arms, perhaps, or horns.
Eventually, Acacia will reach a wide valley surrounded with trees. At the bottom there lies a bulky, massive shape. It's hard to discern what it is from a distance and in the murky light.
