Wanna try bringing it back to the other musical bubble and see if they can interact somehow?

>Flight is no more cooperative than before, alas.
>You slowly make your way down the spire. Having found a path up, it is not too hard to find your way back down. But, the going is a bit slower just out of the necessity of not falling. It takes a few minutes for you to get back down to the rocky ledge that you were on before, but you do it safely.

>You make your way back through the gap, returning to the hole with the glowing moss. Making your way back up the tunnel, you return to the branch/log that you placed, and begin to ascend up it. Part of the way up, one of the leaves; the one that gave you difficulty last time, suddenly snaps under your weight! Your foot slides down the side of the branch, finding no purchase, and dangles in midair as you struggle to keep your balance against the sudden drop. You manage to keep from falling further, and now find yourself precariously balanced with your hands on a branch and a leaf, and your right foot perched on another leaf. You are not sure how long these holds will support your weight before breaking off as well...

>The main problem would be getting your legs up there in the first place. You don't know how wise it would be to just try to swing them up, given the that one of your handholds is also a leaf.

>Ah. That will leave you dangling for a second, if not more. You are not certain if you are confident in your handholds to support that. If they could, should should be viable.

>The opening is a few yards below you. You could possibly drop onto it, but it would be difficult to do without giving yourself some kind of momentum to the side, so that you aren't dropping straight down. Otherwise, you're likely to fall past it and tumble down the side of the ravine.

>Execute the branch-grabbing leg-swinging maneuver, being ready to grab wildly at the log if something goes wrong.

>Swinging your free leg around the tree, you barely manage to do more than place your heel against the bark. Still, it is enough to steady yourself so you can center your weight rightward, focusing on holding yourself up with your right arm. The leaf serving as your foothold begins to bend uncomfortably, prompting you to kick your right leg in the air and wrap it around the trunk before it or your left handhold fails you. The hold you achieve is comfortable secure, and you do your best to ignore the ache spreading through your right shoulder as you adjust your left leg to get a better hold, before wrapping your left arm, and then your right, around the main branch of this ladder.
