Mnemonic Stories

Before electricity, people would put candles in the treetops of trees at Christmas time.

A single stray spark from the campfire caught the lowest branch of the pine tree and raced to the treetops in seconds.

Just one section of the treetops bear a striking resemblance to the whole tree, just a _small_er fractal version of it.
