Aura glides below me,her fins flying through the water sky.

I look up to see meteors,no doubt the cause of Astro.

I was in the forgotten forest.

The deities lived here.

Not many people knew about it though.

I look over to see a patch of the forest,cut down.

Probably construction workers...

Diablo was there staring at the land sadly.

His head bows and suddenly back up to the sky,screeching out in agony.

The land...was a part of him.

He nurtured it.

He could feel everything the land felt.

It was alive.

The silent cries of what was left of the breathing trees.

I look down to see a tiny plant sprout,growing.

"Diablo!" I call.

He looks over at me and I point to it.

The black fog around him disappears and fades into a pleasant light blue fog.

He seems to smile at the tiny plant and casts his snout over it,making it grow into a beautiful flower.

A bee lands on it and I go to shoo it away...but he stops me.

The bee nectars it and spreads the pollen.

It was the circle of life.

This part of the forest will grow again.

Just like my heart,dead with sorrow,pain.

But it will learn to love again,and be loved.

It will hurt...and hurt....and hurt.

And then one day it just won't hurt anymore.
