The most obvious foe in the park is likely the tree. Or rather, the physical form of the spirit who resided there. They take the glowing form of a woman with long, flowing hair and jet black eyes. Black petals fall from their hollow eyes like tears and the black dress they wear is made of the goo that seeps out of the tree. The dress keeps their torso and lower body melded to the tree, though they seem to be trying desperately to pull away. They reach long, twig-length fingers out towards the picnickers and scream agonizingly, the sound no longer human. The tree's black roots lift out of the dirt and flail around. Every time they hit the invisible barrier, it begins to crack and splinter. It's only a matter of time before its roots can bypass the barrier and attack the civilians who have gathered.
Amidst all of the chaos, a conflicted voice cries out within the minds of those present:
"I don't want to hurt them! Don't let me hurt them!"
"How could you leave me? Why did you let it come to this?!"
