Chapter 1: The Call of the Forest

Finally, the day had come. With a heavy heart and a determined spirit, Woulf stood before his village. For a year, he had felt the pull of distant voices, the cries for help echoing in his mind. Today, he would heed those calls.

Within his village, there had been rumblings of pain. The villagers gathered to support Woulf in any way they could as he prepared for his journey. There were tears and commands to be safe and to make the village proud. With resolve, he faced the road to the Lumibear village.

The voice of the forest cried in his ears as he shouldered his backpack and headed west towards the setting sun. The weight of his decision bore down on him, but he knew he could not ignore the call. The mycorrhizal network whispered secrets of unrest, and it was up to him to uncover the truth.

As he ventured deeper into the forest, the familiar sights and sounds of his home gave way to the unknown. Shadows danced among the trees, and the air was thick with the scent of magic. Every step brought him closer to the source of the disturbance, and he could feel the forest's heartbeat quicken in anticipation.

Ahead, the path forked, and Woulf paused, unsure of which way to go. The mycorrhizal network hummed with urgency, guiding him towards the left path. Trusting in the forest's wisdom, he followed its lead, his senses alert to any signs of danger.

As the sun dipped below the horizon, casting long shadows across the forest floor, Woulf pressed on. He knew that the journey ahead would be fraught with peril, but he also knew that he was not alone. The forest was alive with whispers of support, and he drew strength from their words.

With each step, Woulf grew more determined to uncover the truth behind the forest's unrest. The Lumibear village awaited him, its fate intertwined with his own. As the darkness closed in around him, he knew that his journey had only just begun.


Chapter 2: The Lumibear Village

As Woulf ventured deeper into the forest, guided by the whispers of the mycorrhizal network, he emerged into a clearing bathed in an ethereal glow. The Lumibear village lay before him, a marvel of nature and Lumibear craftsmanship.

The village was alive with activity. Lumibears bustled about, their fur shimmering in the moonlight. What caught Woulf's attention, however, were the delicate, shimmering webs that adorned the village. These were not ordinary spider webs; they were the work of the Lumibears' revered spider companions.

However, Woulf noticed something amiss. The Lumibears' fur, which usually glowed brightly, seemed to be fading, and some of the webs were in poor condition, as if the spiders were sick. The once intricate patterns now looked frayed and weak, a stark contrast to the usual beauty of the village.

Seeking answers, Woulf was led to the village elder, a wise Lumibear whose fur still held a faint glow. The elder listened intently as Woulf recounted his journey and the troubles plaguing the forest. With a solemn nod, the elder spoke of a darkness that had crept into the forest, disrupting the natural balance. It seemed that the Lumibears had also felt the effects, their once vibrant village now showing signs of decay.

Determined to help, Woulf offered his assistance. The Lumibears, grateful for his offer, showed him to a secluded grove where mushrooms thrived. There, Woulf could sense the disturbance in the mycorrhizal network, a darkness lurking just beneath the surface.

Chapter 3: The Guardian

Determined to uncover the source of the darkness plaguing the forest, Woulf set out to find the Guardian. The Lumibears had spoken of an ancient being, a protector of the forest, who might hold the answers he sought.

After a long journey, Woulf arrived at the heart of the forest, where the Guardian resided. The Guardian was a towering figure, with skin the color of bark and eyes that glowed with ancient wisdom. As Woulf approached, he felt a wave of energy wash over him, filling him with a sense of awe and reverence.

The Guardian listened as Woulf recounted his journey and the troubles facing the forest. With a voice like the rustling of leaves, the Guardian spoke of a powerful force that had infiltrated the mycorrhizal network, corrupting its natural harmony. The Guardian explained that the network was the lifeblood of the forest, connecting all living beings and ensuring their survival.

The darkness, the Guardian revealed, was a malevolent entity that had taken root in the network, sapping its energy and causing imbalance throughout the forest. The Guardian sensed that Woulf carried a unique gift, a connection to the forest that could help him combat this darkness.

Determined to restore balance, Woulf offered his assistance to the Guardian. The Guardian, recognizing Woulf's bravery and determination, agreed to help him. Together, they devised a plan to confront the darkness and restore harmony to the forest.

As Woulf left the Guardian's presence, he felt a renewed sense of purpose. He knew that the journey ahead would not be easy, but he was determined to see it through. With the Guardian's guidance, Woulf set out to confront the darkness and protect the forest he called home.

One last thing and if you have read this far help me decide on the source of the conflict.

"It sounds like you're looking for an antagonist or a source of conflict that disrupts the mycorrhizal network and threatens the balance of the forest. Here are a few ideas that could serve as potential sources of disruption:

  1. The Dark Entity: An ancient, malevolent force that seeks to corrupt the mycorrhizal network for its own sinister purposes. This entity could poison the network or create barriers that block the flow of energy, weakening the forest and its inhabitants.

  2. The Environmental Imbalance: Perhaps there's an external threat to the forest, such as deforestation or pollution, that disrupts the natural balance of the ecosystem. This could indirectly affect the mycorrhizal network, causing it to weaken or malfunction.

  3. Magical Interference: A powerful mage or sorcerer could be manipulating the magic of the forest for their own gain, inadvertently causing harm to the mycorrhizal network in the process. Their actions could disrupt the flow of energy and destabilize the entire ecosystem.

  4. Natural Disaster: A catastrophic event, such as a wildfire or a severe drought, could ravage the forest and damage the mycorrhizal network. The sudden loss of vegetation or water could disrupt the symbiotic relationships between plants and fungi, leading to widespread devastation."

The mycorrhizal network is the network of fungi under the ground it is how trees communicate. In my story it is the most important entity in the magic forest they live in.

My Birthday Trip- Day 4

Today is Ferry Day! I am not talking a ferry like the one in Toronto, this ship was huge! I guess it would have to be to hold 18 wheeler's plus dozens of other cars. The Chi-Cheemaun runs between South Baymouth on Manitoulin Island and Tobermory on Bruce Peninsula. It moves passengers and their vehicles between the above two points a few times a day.    E got a business call when we were leaving the Ferry and he got pissy cause he's on vacation and still they called him. Anyway that meant that he left the ferry and the Port too quickly for me to speak about what we were supposed to do next or rather what I wanted to do first. After he calmed down a bit I asked him if we could go back and get tickets to take a ride on a glass bottom boat. We turned back and found the Blue Heron company that did the tours. We booked a tour instead of the explorer tour but that was because I was in pain after a fall during the morning. While we were waiting for the ferry we went for a walk to see...

My Birthday Trip- Day 3

 We started early because we needed to get to the Preserve before dark as absolutely no white light is allowed and that includes car lights. We stopped at the Anishnabe Trading Store, where I met this fellow. From the outside it didn't look that big but inside it was huge.  As you can see behind him there is a lot of stuff. We also stopped at the Iroquois Cultural Centre. Being in there was deeply moving like being in a holy place. I didn't get any pictures because it felt wrong to do so. We stopped at Bridal Veil Falls. The climb down wasn't too bad but the walk back up was murder on my lungs. This was taken about half-way down I think. I had planned to sleep in one of these but I'm glad we changed our mind, the teepee doesn't have a floor. Instead we stayed in a bunkie.  Two rooms and no heat, also no running water or indoor toilet so we had to use a outhouse. That wouldn't have been so bad but the outhouses were set 25 yards or so from the bunkie. Not fun wh...

Rest Assured I'm still here

 Albeit tired in a way I can not describe well but I will try. November was a quiet month with very little going on and was just what I needed after such a busy summer. I am still feeling off but that may have been because I had what I think was a mini-stroke just at the end of November then December brought GD#3 back full-time. The shakes are steadily getting worse and the headaches are back. It has been awhile since I felt so tense and afraid. It could just be a stress headache but I keep coming back to the massive one I had the night before I got checked out for the stroke. It frightens me but it shouldn't I used to get them a lot last winter, it's because our radiators blow warm, dry air and it dries me out. The thing is even drinking water does not seem to help much. My guess is that I am very dehydrated from the heaters, with the added stress of Christmas and GD#3, all of which add up to "I don't feel so good". Add the mini-stroke stuff and winter arriving a...
