In the middle of the night, the three of them are waiting for their father, who is hiding in the woods. The three are overjoyed to see their father. He is a giant tree, and they call it the "tree of life" because it contains the essence of the spirit of the heaven realm. If the spirit were taken away, it would collapse, and fall into the human realm. They eat some of the mushroom that they have collected, and their father thanks them for their kindness. He says that he has been under his father's influence since he was a child, and that his sister died because of him. He apologizes to his sister, and tells her that he wants to apologize to her too, but that he needs to leave for some time. He gives her a new weapon, which he has made for her, and asks her not to tell anyone about it
