Answer 2

Answer:

The story is tragic and scary.

Explanation:

The story opens describing the tree as old and beautiful. Then it is engulfed by the fire and a dazzling light. This description of the beautiful, old tree creates a tragic tone since the tree is being destroyed. Then when the narrator looks at the tree later and sees how violent the tree was shredded and it's utter destruction it creates a scary tone.
