The Forbidden Forest

Revival Of Monandria

Then when the two elements told Venom the creation of the forest and the history behind the three Halloxian queens, they stood and put their gazes at Venom who were standing near the ravine. Venom was staring at the darkness before he shifted his gaze at Hydrox and Sycorax who were still standing before him.

Venom then went down as he bowed his head on the ground to watch his steps on the slope area of the ravine. For a moment, and when he reached the plain part of the ground, he took off his hood with his candle-like fingers.

His perfect face was revealed, his terrifying eyes were burning like fire. He crumpled his hand into a fist and his timid lips opened widely as he spoke.

His frightening voice then echoed across the entire forest.

"Elements of Monandria! Listen to your prince. As regard to Severous and on behalf of my Venomial power, I summon you to create a new and powerful forest for everything."

After which was said, Venom then walked towards Syrorax and pointed his finger at her. He opened his mouth and commanded impassively, “Sycorax, create huge and towering trees in front of the forest. They will be the protection of the forest and will symbolize the greatness and power that we have. Give them thorny vines that dangle on their branches. Behind those trees, bushes will grow with abounding leaves."

As he continued, Venom swept his gaze at the entire forest, and once again, his resounding voice echoed, "Make everything so wondrous, Sycorax. Let flowers bloom with a scented smell that can attract magical bees and butterflies. Create monster plants and some poisonous ones. Give a breath to the animals that not a single person may even see them in their entire life..."

When Sycorax heard the command of Venom, she stood and walked in the middle of the forest. She raised her woody-like hands and pointed them at the front of Monandria. Although she only opened her mouth a little, her voice was thunderous. It was heard across the forest as the ground shook when she spoke.

"With my hands, the trees will sprout. Under the ground, the roots will grow to point in every direction of the forest. The thorny vines will dangle as the prince' willed..."

The dark clouds poured heavy rains, turning the ground wet as the forest trembled. Trees then sprouted out from the ground. It became huge and towering, the roots sprouted the same and pointed in every direction. The vines hanged on its branches, the thorns sprouted on its skin and grew long enough to reach the ground.

The front of the forest was filled with trees as they stood at the foot of the forest.

The rain stopped as the trees grew. Through the darkness, the strong wind came and made a frightening sound that made someone tremble in fear.

"Whoah...sshhhh"

After a few moments, the wind stopped blowing, till one red petal flew above. It slowly fell until it reached the ground. As the petal landed on the ground, the dry and dusty ground turned green because of the bushes that grew in almost an instant.

Throughout the bushes and to the surface of the ground, the flowers sprouted, they had different colors and a one-of-a-kind smell. They beautified the entire forest, their sweet fragrance scattered all over the forest.

There were also poisonous ones that if someone touched it, they might immediately lose their consciousness until their breathing stop for a minute. Besides that plant, monster plants sprouted too that could eat another plant beside it. They had attractive and colorful surfaced but on the inside, they had sharp and pointed thorns that seemed like teeth of a true monster.

As the plants and trees sprouted, out of the dark, a roar of an unknown being was heard. It had a thunderous sound that echoed in the entire forest. Behind the huge and towering trees, a terrible monster emerged. It had thick fur covering its entire body. It seemed frightening because of its burning eyes that glowed in the dark.

The way it walked was like a thunder that roared. It had feet like of those terror birds that marked on the ground as it walked. It had a horn in the middle of its eye, it had sharp teeth like Smilodon that could smash the flesh of its enemy.

It walked towards the place where Venom was standing as it walked around him. Venom on the other hand touched the head of the monster as it sat beside him like a dog.

After a moment, once again, the footsteps of something in the dark were heard.

Thud! Thud! Thud!

One by one, animals who had different characteristics and features had appeared. Some were terrifying and valorous but some were tamed and sluggish. They made a resounding sound as they reached the place where they belong but then stopped as they saw the monster that sat in front of them.

Birds that were flying above were finding a place to build nests for their fowls. They chirped with beautiful voices that became music to the ears of Venom. The birds stopped singing when Sycorax clenched her hand into a fist that became a signal to all to stop.

Sycorax bowed her head again as she waited for the new command of her prince.

"Your highness, I made everything you wanted for this kingdom, I've been waiting for your next command."

Venom stood and told Sycorax to go back to its home to rest and sleep again for a hundred years and let the Venomial power awaken her again.

"Sycorax, you made it perfectly, now it's time for you to take a rest, go back to your home and wait for your destiny to awaken you again!"

To do as Venom commanded, she laid on the ground, and suddenly, her body became soil and disappeared in the darkness.

When Syrorax was gone, Venom stared at Hydrox as he commanded him to make a spring in the middle of the forest to give the animals and plants water to live.

Hydrox didn't dare dally as he immediately heed the command of his master. He then touched the ground and within it, the spring suddenly surged out of the ground. The fresh and cold water finally flowed into the forest.

After Hydrox made a stream, he touched the river and after a while, aquatic animals swam freely in it. The mosses grew on the huge rocks and the plants near the river became prosperous in fruits and flowers.

When Hydrox satisfied Venom with what he had done, he dived on the water and his body also disappeared.

The whole forest became wonderous and more mysterious. Even when the darkness filled the entire forest, Venom knew how beautiful the new Monandria was.

After some time, Venom then flew above the misty sky and went towards the Aodeo tree. He laid down on its branches to take some rest as he would face the new journey of Monandria with his rule and power.
