Forest of Tears

Event

Tone: Dark

During: War for Territory

Description:
The living trees tried to use their magic and cast a curse on a group of humans that were viciously chopping down the forests. The trees, not particularly knowledgeable or skilled at this whole magic thing, instead caused the human souls to merge with their own on accident. The trees in this forest became strengthened and could no longer be cut down by mere axe or blade, and the humans' lifespan increased greatly (to that of a tree). A few spiteful humans decided to burn the magic possessed forest. With every tree that died in the fire, so did the human whose soul was tied to it. Realizing the effects, the humans frantically tried to put out the fire, but it was too late. The charred forest became sacred ground to the remaining family members of those who died. They often went into the charred forest and worship the trees.
