Eterna Forest Novels & Stories

CHAPTER 11 The moment you are in there's intense feelings of anxiety and the feeling of being constantly watched, no locals from any village, including Namamali have ever dared to enter. People have stayed away because they fear and they know very well that if they enter, they will never find their way out. The forest has a mass grave containing thousands upon thousands of dead rotting bodies, ultimately, massacred by demons. Evil forest is impenetrable, the only forest with total darkness. The forest is actually haunted by werewolves, witches, and the devil himself. So for Nina to go inside, it was like signing her own death certificate.

I said, forcing myself to sit up. “Agreed, we rest tonight and tomorrow we trek through night and day to get us through the thickest parts of the forest. I’ve heard some crazy things about this place. Temptation forest is exactly that, a complete temptation. Built to trick you into straying from your path to indulge in your deepest fears and desires.” My stomach twisted in knots as I stared at the trees. They stood still, not a single branch moving, no birds singing, no wildlife at all actually. And something about that was extremely unsettling.

Juanita looked into the farm screen and saw that the elixir was being upgraded and she was at ease once more. She went to her master bedroom where she sat cross-legged and began to go through the information she received from the strange woman. She didn’t know how long she took digesting the information but by the time she was done, she was truly enlightened. “It is on a day like this I realize that I am just a frog in a well, I need to be careful and become strong. So, what if I live forever? I will find something from the farm to increase the lifespan of my family and ensure that they won’t suffer any ailments or injustice.”

Brage continues in a distracted tone. "Well, she's supposed to live in the deepest and most haunted old growth forest at the base of the great mountain that sheds real tears." Indra feels how she’s getting excited. "In the human dimension," she adds, then thinks for a moment before she recalls the strange name of the forest." Hoia Baciu, I think the forest is called." Vimar laughs, it’s a deep hearty sound. "Oh there!" he says, rolling his eyes. Indra stretches and gives Vimar a bitter look. "I know how it sounds. But I need to get there – with or without your help."

The screen returned to life, making me realise that it was turned on all the while and Kaiser had just left it on idle mode. I immediately clicked on the icon to enter the system. The software opened easily without the need of a username and password, and I looked at the past search results. There were four names: “Jacques Jones” “Jacques Jensen” “May Jensen” “Piper Taylor” I further noticed that he had been running searches on these names a while back. It was just the day after I answered his question about the man in the photo frame. I typed in Lenard Lee’s name and watched as the animation of the globe on the screen started rotating. I prayed under my breath.

“It is. It was Elena that thought and made all these possible. Since she became Alpha Supreme four years ago, at the age of fifteen, she hadn’t had a day off. She is a workaholic.” Why has the Moon Goddess paired me with such a strong female? I am nothing like her. “In case you wonder, the pack's location is in the Baciu Forest, near Cluj-Napoca, in Transylvania. The locals think the forest is cursed, which works great for us. In this way, no one comes into this forest. The forest is the property of the pack, but we don't want humans to know this. Anyway, let’s get going. You need a haircut and lots of stuff. Then I will show you where you will live.”

I asked still confusion as I rub my aching eyes. “Evetora… Evetora, a place in which supernatural beings resides. Together with the people who accepts the existence of supernatural entities. Evetora is the world in the center of the normal world or your world and the realms of the gods. It’s a place so beautiful that you will feel relaxed. LET’S GO! What do you say?!” Cartilana said still confusing me.

Sorry for the long author's note haha. Nity out 🍄

And several comets that passed through a luminous ring; connecting massive planet-like stars organised like beads covering Terra Australis. The hidden continent displayed an ethereal prowess no man in the old continents could ever imagine. Still, the colonials had no time to address the natural formalities. Their general had sent them to look for a structure lurking deep in this place. The general had also sent one of her finest leaders and a good friend of hers, Col. Sonia Campbell. They were led by an Iyalaala. A floating crystal kite believed to have been the souls of people who have passed here as their pathfinder.

Ze began to walk in the direction of the outpost, and beckoned Eva to follow. “I’m familiar,” she replied. “Fought off one of their raiding bands in… the Kavati System, I think? Anyway, I recall they were big and dumb and aggressive.” “There’s more to them than that, I promise.” The two walked for some time through the expansive forest and saw beautiful reds and purples everywhere. The tree trunks themselves were a deep and dark brown, much more than regular Earth trees. They made their bright red leaves all the more prominent.
