My name is Bluma, I'm five and a half and am in a strange place. My daddy used to tell me stories of a great forest. This forest was filled with white deer that stood as the guardians of life on the land. And creatures who made flowers grow and streams flow. It even homed the Star Painter, the creature the god gifted us, so the creature could give us protection with stars. Stars would fall every so often to show the death of a sacred animal in the forest. Daddy said that not long ago the people of the land grew greedy, and began hunting the sacred beasts of the ancient forest. And soon the stars fell like a drenching rain.
Because of the people's greed the star painter flew to the home of the god. The star no longer decorated the night sky. Then the worst happened the forest was set aflame by angry people.
The place I am, it is cold and full of dark dead trees. The ground smells like the black powder stuff left in the fire place after smores. Maybe this is the place daddy talked about. I understand now, and I feel ashamed of my own kind. Such a memorizing place, settling into ash because of her species greed.
I sit in this ounce beautiful place, trying to imagine what is ounce was. All I see is ash and dead trees, and what my people have done. not only have they abandon me her alone without food or water. No, they also have doomed themselves by destroying the Forest of Life. How I feel toured them is deep, I have a dear place for nature and they've destroyed it. I am ashamed to be classified as there species, and anger grows deep within me. Some day I will give them what they deserve. Give the humans, no men, no murderers what they deserve. This is a promise I make to myself, and as the gods as my witnesses, it shall be done.
Greed, just another fault that builds up humanity, people say it's how we build and become more advanced, but maybe it'll only lead to our own destruction
