The weather seemed to be perfect for an expedition, it had snowed the night before but today the sun reflected on the snow promising to create beautiful scenery.In the morning, the Capitan of legion VII decided to explore the woods that laid before you, so, he comprised a small team of volunteers.
Weird stories had circled around the village of things living in the forest. The brave Capitan decided to investigate fore if someone loved stories of horror and mystery he would be the one. Even now at the edge of his memory he could remember the warmth of his home. Summer never ended there the sea was close by and people were so warm.But the cold seeped in his memory and snapped him back to his current reality.
The Capitan decided it would be too dangerous to go alone in a forest so vast and unknown to him so he decided to ask men from the nearby village to assist him.Unfortunately thought when he asked for assistance on one would agree, the place was plagued ,villagers would rather die than enter. But alas after offering coins a young man from a close village agreed to help for the condition alone that he was under strenuous circumstances. Now the normal question that would arise from such a situation is why on earth would the Capitan wish to visit a place that was so obviously dangerous?
You see this pore sole lost something the last time he left home, whether it was the food or the music or the warm embrace of the seaside, every time he left a void grew inside of him. The forest had the ability to poke at that void and play with it unalike any other want, need or desire. It promised you resolution and peace in exchange for that little sanity you have left, however, peaceful numbness could be considerd.
