Hmmmmm. Who are you? Are you one of my children? You look too soft to be one of mine. Where are they all? Are they hiding behind you? Oh, deary deary me. My children have run off again! They are such naughty little sprouts.
Could you help an old lady out and look for them for me? I am the Rootmother, and my Green Children usually play close to me until they become fully grown. You might find them here and there, in this realm or yours. Such naughty sprouts!
Find all ten, if you can. Then, I shall reward you, soft one. Oh, those naughty sprouts. Zzzzzzzz.

Hmmm? Hmmmmm? HMMMM! My sprouts! Oh, you little darlings! You have been found. You have shown a tremendous kindness, soft one.
A gift I give to you, yes? Let me see what I have in my roots... Hmmm, perhaps this may be of use? Someone hid it in a tree hollow in your realm once. My roots touch all, soft one.
