Let's face it, getting reincarnated as a tree has got to be the lamest thing to get reincarnated into. But when the tree is actually a King Forest Keeper, born every thousand years with a 15% chance, with abilities beyond human comprehension, even p...
Darkness. it was all Lucien could see for miles and miles in all direction. He had forgotten what was right and what was left. what was up and what was down. Yet, he still floated and--existed on.
i'm not even mad. i'd just wished i could have done more...be more.
Just a small but thought. it was more than enough to play at the pity heartstrings of whatever RNG deity had controls of his fate.
Reincarnation initiating in 3
Lucien...or what was left of his consciousness and "person" did not know what to make of that voice so he ignored it. Like what most others would.
Reincarnation initiating in 30
From 3 to 30, Lucien could not comprehend what the voice meant, but he accepted it. The last time he checked, he died at a car crash.
I wonder what my parents are thinking right now. They must be heartbroken...
Anyone could hear the despair that laced through his tone.
Their only child...dead
These thoughts did not seem to stop. Rather, they worsened. Before long, he became bitter. By his third thought of 'revenge on who', he was interrupted by an orb of white light that suddenly appeared in front of him. Single-handedly and successfully, it stole his breath away.
Memory, Body and Experience scan complete. Reincarnation as Forest Keeper
The orb seemed to pulse to sync to his heart beat before growing exponentially, swallowing Lucien's boring and dark world in one of light, sounds, colors, and smells. It was an overwhelming of the senses...that is, if Lucien had any. To him, it was a quick reverse-blink, start off with closed lids, a quick open, and end up back closed again.
But something within him...could sense in ways beyond the 5 senses. In an attempt to move what he thought were former limbs, all that really happened was silent rustling and swishing of branches and leaves. what would otherwise be normal forest sounds.

There was the voice yet again. Unsure of how to speak, Lucien simply thought out 'status'

He guessed that 'magic sense' was what told him that he wasn't in complete darkness anymore. Unsure of what scale he should go by, he decided that his they were mediocre. Then again, he was a lowly lvl 1--whatever a forest keeper is. And yes, he failed to notice the 'World Breaker' status, being the expert gamer he was.
'How will i know what skills are even active and passive though...' he wondered to himself.
Imagining that he would be some sort of Druid, he was surprised and startled at the opening of a pair of eyes. His one pair of eyes. and there was the delayed sensory overload. The sounds too bright, the colors too loud, and the overpowering scent of soothing earth.
First the sunlight, now this. Lucien groaned and attempted to shield his eyes. What was supposed to be a bone and flesh human hand was...a branch. and a twiggy one at that. The wildlife Lucien was surrounded with would have been very grateful that he could not speak for the scream he would have given would have rattled the earth itself.
Eager to check out the rest of himself, Lucien twisted and turned to no avail. He couldn't see his nose nor cheeks. He went through a myriad of ridiculous faces and the only thing he surmised was...
I'm expressionless, aren't I
Okay, don't panic, Lucien. It's not everyday that you become one with nature. Think of it like an outside body experience.
With a heave, Lucien pulled up one of his roots. And then another. Within a few minutes, he had successfully pulled them up--All 8 of them--and decided to explore a bit.
