Story
Of its own accord, the carrot emerged from the soil and stood in front of the farmer.
The farmer knelt down, walked up to the new buds, and stroked the leaves gently.
"It's smaller than I expected, but it's enough. Do you see this field? This is your home, and it's our home. The storm is coming, and there are bad guys out there who want this house. I want you to protect this place while I'm away. Can you do it?"
Carrot gathered his strength and violently thrust his fist at the being in front of him.
The farmer laughed out loud.
"I see! I think you would make a great Guardian."
