"Wow, this is the best place to visit ever’, said Kris. Then, they flew to @ tropical forest. It was very hot and humid and full of trees. "Where ‘are we now?", asked Kris.

Once he was in the forest picking berries he heard a noise. It sounded like music. He followed the sound and went into a cave with strange engravings inside. There was a funny looking elf playing a magical flute. The elf said, "Hey there, stranger." He had avery strange mask on. Rauru asked, "Who are you?" The elf said, "My name is Tingle. Would you like to try my mask on? So, Rauru put on Tingle's mask and as.soon as he put it on, he couldn't take it off. He started feeling funny and he felt the need to dance. Tingle let out an evil laugh and said, "This mask makes people want to dance until they can't dance no more.” Tingle played his flute and Rouru danced and danced, He told Tingle, "Please Tingle, | can't dance no more, let me go.” Tingle did't want to let him go. You see, Tingle didn't have ony friends. This was the only way he could have visitors in his cave. Rauru told him, “If you let me go | will be your friend!” Tingle smiled and stopped playing the flute. "Do you promise?" asked Tingle. “Yes, | promise!”, said Rauru, From that day on, Rauru, Saria and Tingle became best friends. Workin groups. How do you imagine the forest where Rauru lived?
