Mouse-Shaman Forest Shrine
Shaman Mice have sacred sites throughout the forest, but this one is a little different. Their shrines are typically very old trees, or sometimes boulders. This shrine is an ancient bunker constructed by unknown beings for a mostly-unknown purpose. Despite it remaining sealed for centuries, the Mice knew it opened and they believed that some day a protector of the forest would emerge from within, and they would visit it and make offerings of food, flowers, and feathers.
When Uthburt awoke and exited the bunker, he met a group of Shaman Mice who proclaimed that he was the protector of the forest. It was the first he had heard of it, and the first time he heard a Mouse speak for that matter, but he believed them, and has since proclaimed himself "Uthburt the Lavender, Protector of the Forest!"
