Knights of Chaos writing entry Part 2

Trust was for fools she thought as she was finishing off another small village. When they saw her true form she was no longer an elf to them, but a demon. She found a sort of sick humor in watching them run, knowing there was nowhere to hide when nature was everywhere. Her sprees went on for another few years, in human calculations she was about twenty by this time. Her mind started to work against her, she had stumbled upon a small village that she grew to like. The humans here had given her a different name from all the other places … Rose, it’s a type of flower that blooms in several different colors but the stem of this breed of flower has thorns. She found the name suiting to her as she grew closer and closer to the people of the small farming village.

Though her newfound happiness was short lived, one day upon returning from a small gathering trip in the woods for herbs she found the remains of the village in ruins and ablaze. Her eyes glazed over as she took her naturally form and hunted the ones behind this. Finding a small encampment of uniformed soldiers she lashed out without hesitation. There were baskets of crops and tied up livestock from the village. The troop stood not a chance as they were eaten alive by a rare breed of flora that is known to have a taste for blood. A young draft horse was tied to one of the now destroyed carts; unhitching it she quickly mounted the beast and started back towards the ruined village.

Making her amends with the souls of the dead she buried those she could and got plants to wrap around each wall and building as if to preserve it. A single tear fell from her eyes and slashed upon the ground as a sudden burst of flowers and lush grasses covered the area. With her being homeless once more she started to descend back into the forest, though she turned noticing the young shire was following she decided against the forest. Taking on a new leaf that day as she ventured out into the world once more, seeking a place to belong maybe a reason behind her being this way.

Traveling from place to place she found herself with a lead of a strange area, where abnormal powers and creatures seemed to gather. She had no intent of joining this group once she found it, though her curiosity had gotten the best of her in the decision to even bother traveling out this far. After scooping out the area and watching its inhabitants for a few days she debated staying. Her heart felt at ease here, her mind at peace for once in all her travels, she felt at home here more so then anywhere else she had traveled to. It took a few more weeks before she settled on her decision to stay or not, being approached many times and engaging into conversation with the strange beings of this domain.

Her choice … was to stay among these beings, allowing her to be free and show her true form. In the process of staying she took up the job of tending the over grown garden and forest near the knight’s domain, it kept her mind at ease feeling needed for something. The area slowly developed and now houses some of the planet’s most exotic and dangerous plant species. Though the garden is also home to an oversized horse that tends to speak its riders mind for her, the beast seems to also commonly attack the Knight’s leader.
