Bamboo Svarpian
As you continue on the path leading south and down, you come across a small clearing with a lot of dense shrubbery. The path seems to lead on endlessly to the south. To the right the vegetation becomes so dense even you decide venturing in that direction might be beyong your skills. To the left you see a sparkle.
The clearing is eerily quiet, no bird calls or insect buzz. Vines hang from the surrounding trees and it takes you a while to notice the movement as the tan-coloured bamboo svarpian stalks toward you. 

Hurry! Catch it!

Turn left and go investigate that sparkle
Or decide you've had enough and return to the Hollow Tree.
