I would love to give you a tour, but I am currently very busy. Although, this will be a wonderful opportunity for you to meet your other neighbors. We are such a close-knit community that we decided to connect all our homes. You will first head down the path to the [[community burrow]] where all of us here go to enjoy time together. I need to head out now, but all of us here are glad to see a new face."]<div class="passage">

You look down and see a variety of tracks from different animals. As you look around the room, there seems to be three passages. [[Amara the badger]] seems to be home since you hear chatter. You smell something wonderful coming from [[Roman the armadillo]]'s burrow. [[Elsie the raccoon]] doesn't seem to be home but it wouldn't hurt to check. All paths will take you to your new home.]</div>

You suspect that Willow is taking care of the situation and the resident must have just gotten lost while coming back to Napeteccas. You decide to [[continue on->community burrow]]. ]</div>
