Synopsis:
Floro seeks out the Parliament of Trees after he learns that Swamp Thing was sent back in time. He attempts to gain answers from the elders about mythological tales involving trees, such as the Tree of Knowledge and Tree of Life from the Bible. He thinks these trees may have been elementals or possibly Swamp Thing himself. He calls out the Parliament for meddling with history. The Parliament give Floro no answers. They send him on his way with a warning, beware the corruption of matango.
