Carcasses of great cities are scattered over the earth. Strange animals roam endless forests. Inexplicable phenomena haunt anyone who attempts to penetrate the mysterious woods. And those who survived the Second Genesis have settled in small towns dotted throughout this world, reminded constantly of their place on the food chain and doing their best to survive.
The world of humans had fallen in a matter of days, slaughtered by the environment they themselves had been waging war against for centuries. Misko, the great forest spirit, is responsible for the deaths of over two billion people. And now, nine years later, Claude swears that one day he will take back what was taken from him.
But his plans of killing Misko were only dreams until a strange young nomad by the name of Finny appears and offers Claude a deal -- if he can protect Finny out in the forest, he will take Claude to Misko. In a twist of fate Claude finds himself pitted against his own people in a race to commit the most important slaughter in the history of mankind.
But is this what he really wants?

The Lost
Scary stories of a place called a city are whispered throughout the tribes of the forest. Rumours of great grey forts with monstrous towers, sprawling walls... a place crawling with the monsters everyone so fears. Humans. --- Despite a slightly concerning size difference, Lyn and Lucius are the best of friends that share one common goal: find Lyn's family. A sudden twist in their lives thrusts the two of them into the sprawl of the human city, and achieving that goal suddenly seems impossible. When Lyn and Lucius cross paths with two strange girls, their priorities are tested. These strangers seem to be able to answer Lyn's biggest question: where does she come from? But a pressing problem must be resolved before they can show her. Who is Aspen, and why are these people so desperate to find him? --- This is the continuation to my other story called The Winged. It isn't a direct continuation, but I would recommend reading the other story first to avoid confusion. If you can suffer through it, you can find it on Search or by looking on my account :) Apologies for the incredible time it took me to write this crap. Hopefully you enjoy 🥲Complete

Amid this desolate chaos, a mysterious figure known only as Su emerges from the wilderness.
