The story:
The Whispering Grove (where the Phantom's name is said to be whispered by the wind passing through the trees) belongs to the Oogaan tribe, who use its most unique and hard wood to produce magnificent carvings that are later sold for huge profits.

When a group of interested buyers try to aquire the grove, the Oogan refuse. However, the ruthless prospectors are in no mood to take no for an answer and concoct a plan to force Prince Obiju of Oogaan to approve of the sale or lose his bride-to-be...

Watch out for:

  • Wedding preparations
  • Tense standoff at the Whispering Grove
  • Obiju and Rona at Keela-Wee
