I hate people. I guess it helps that I'm a Gawd, since they don't speak to me when they find out.
I live in a tree. It's a tiny tree, but I'm a tiny person. Here on Gakeür, us Gawds live peacefully, without any human interruption. Once every full moon, though, that changes. The humans find a portal into our world and chase and annoy us. This tree protects me from the prying eyes of a human, so I made it my home.
No one knows about us Gawds apart from the humans who ruin our world, because if one gets left behind, the trees eat him. Gawds are taller than humans but smaller than the Kirels, a form of Hurn. When a Kirel visits on a full moon, they eat all the humans for us. We like the Kirel.
Us Gawds are a type of Hurn, cousins with the Kirel and Safgil. The Safgil are usually smaller than the average human, but are incredibly fast and smart. Kirel have been known for their strength and not their brains, and are usually outsmarted by the Safgil. Gawds are like gods, this similarity being the reason for the name. We are strong, smart and immortal. We cannot be killed.
Which is why I was so surprised when I saw my friends die before my eyes.
