Ryan tells the legend of Gaia Everfree/Gaia agrees to help Thomas

This is how

[At the Steamworks, Matau and the others are waiting for Ryan]

Crash Bandicoot: I wonder what story does Ryan want to tell?

Matau T. Monkey: I don't know. But, I hope it's going to knock our socks off.

[Ryan arrive]

Ryan F-Freeman: I do have one. I did saw that Twilight will appear in some films after she dove into Primus. Anyhoo. I have to warn you. You might want to hug a friend. That's how scary it is.

Cody Fairbrother: Ok. What is it you want to tell us about, Ryan?

Ryan F-Freeman: I think it's the time I told you about the legend.... of Gaia Everfree!

[Crash shacks in fear and hugs Matau and Coco. Flashback]

Ryan F-Freeman: [narrating] Many years ago, Timber Spruce's great grandparents came to this forest. Seeing it's beauty, they decided that it'll be the perfect place for a camp. But, once they started building, strange things started to happen.

Ryan F-Freeman: [narrating] One pitch-black night, where the wind was howling, a tree branch crashed through the roof of their cabin. They screamed and ran outside only to see a giant creature rising from the earth. She had wild hair like the roots of a tree. Her mouth had jagged rock teeth and her eyes were pools of black tar. But, her aura shine like diamonds. Anywhere she went, she left a trail of gem dust in her wake. Trembling in fear, Timber's great grandparents asked who she was and want she wanted. In a deep and hollow voice, she told them that her name was Gaia Everfree, an ancient spirit who held domain over the forest and that Timber's great grandparent were trespassing in her land. They begged to her to let them stay and build their camp to share this wonderful place with others. Gaia Everfree finally agreed but warned them that they will not be able to keep it forever. Someday she will return and reclaim the forest as her own.
