Fluffuff forest. A hunters forest. a place supposedly filled with creatures more than the farthest fathoms of any ones imaginations could ever muster up. Yes! even you! I don't care how imaginative you are. Well anyways, hundreds of years ago, so the villagers said, people would venture out, setting elaborate traps to capture the monsters that belonged the strange noises and red glowing eyes that lurked behind the trees, just out of reach. when they returned home (or shall I say, IF they returned home) the few villagers that were still around to tell about their experiences, would NOT shut up about them. comparing scars and stories, but not a captured beast in sight. eventually, the forest was deemed too dangerous to step foot in. Oh no! not because of the mysterious deaths and and strange noises, those were expected! But because the traps set were so elaborate ,so countless and so..... hard to keep track of, Nobody could navigate three steps without getting tangled, snarled,twisted,knotted and/or jumbled. there was absolutely no chance of anyone bringing home prizes to compare! that is, anyone but the construer. someone who had mysteriously and furtively mapped the entire fluffuff forest, traps and all. It was their job to destroy every single ambushing trap in the forest. the original map has been passed on for generations, thus leading to why Ixia was venturing into the forest of traps (i'm overusing that word, aren't I?) today.

BOOK ONE: Having enough courage to run through the woods and away from the people who convinced me they were saving me was not how I believed I'd spend my day. Yet, there I went escaping from the only place I knew existed in the world. Being held captive was too much for me, especially when these people wouldn't tell me who they were or even who I was. The first moment in my life I recall very clearly. I awoke in a dark room, with recollection of everything that happened in the world except for one thing. I had no memory of myself existing, I didn't know where I was or why these men kept me from leaving. Days after I first woke I asked plenty of questions, and yet none of them were answered. The only thing I learned was that I was not allowed outside because the woods heald the most powerful magic on the planet, the most dangerous magic. It was more than just bad men and curiosity about the forest that got me to leave, it was a pull towards something; towards magic. Once I was in the forest turning back was never an option, so I put it in my head that I'd keep walking until I found a civilization or a nice paved road that would lead to safety. But that never happened because the forest has a force living through it. Believing that the forest held something strange was the easy part but experiencing it myself was something totally different. I didn't expect anything normal but I didn't expect to be completly engulfed into the forest. I was led by an unknown presence that made me truly believe it was a living being, and in fact it is. I was innocent then, but now I know that anything can be hidden under a small platform in the woods with a secret bigger than the world itself. I was given life that day, until it all ended months later; the day I took my last breath.
