On one hand, the plot element about a part of the forest is not developed well enough. It has to foreshadow the final danger, or it has to go.

On the other hand, going through a scene wondering what I was thinking, I realized what one boy would say at the end, and how it would give the heroine the motive to go do something I was wrestling with. And even what she could say and do that would provoke it, with a little initial impetus from another character.

Such is the whim of the muse.
