Mm...
Was this a tree with Parkinson's?
Xiao Xiao looked up at the tree, its leaves and branches shaking violently.
Among the dense foliage, he spotted a familiar figure.
"Wind-born."
Wind-born felt like it was having a terrible day.
It had been sleeping peacefully.
Then it suddenly sensed something was wrong.
It opened its eyes and realized its body was hanging in midair?!
Startled, it began to struggle.

With wings, its maneuverability—
