Alvin, morsel, and the flock of birds moved until they entered a damp forest. Then they were about to cross a log over a river when suddenly a giant scaly water monster blocked them! "To cross this log, you must answer what is the fastest thing, the slowest thing, the softest thing, the hardest thing, the most beautiful thing, the most ugly thing, the best thing, and the worst. Answers or death." For once, the birds and morsel were dead meat.

Then morsel suddenly popped up and said-"I've heard this riddle before! The fastest thing is the north wind. The slowest is the expanding of the universe. The softest is a child's touch. The hardest is the crust of planets. The most beautiful is the beginning of spring. The most ugly is a dead chick. The best thing is birth. The worst is death." The monster sighed and let them on the log. They came to a lovely forest. To be continued!
