"Stop!" He shoots his hand forward.

I dodge. I see the forest clearly now. It's monstrous. It's black. It's a curse on this very planet. Black smoke rises from me. I've been under his spell too long. It's time to break free and end him once in for all. He throws his hand out. I dodge. He glares at me. 

"You don't have to do this." He says.

"Yes, I do." I throw my hand out forward.

Weapons rise up from the ground. I throw them forward to him. He dodges.  grab one of the swords and slam it into his hand. His eyes flare in flames. He throws me back. He lunges for me. I dodge his hand.

"Don't do this!" He yells.

I jump back. I have to get out of here. I have to leave this place. I turn and see the trail down. I start running. He shoots his hand out. A tree root grabs my leg. He lifts me up. I wince as it throws me in the air. He spins me around. I haven't felt this distorted since the day I was in the cave with that snake light tortoise. He slams me into the ground. Blood escapes my mouth.

"I didn't want to do this." He throws me into a wall. 

I hiss through the pain.

"I could have saved you!" He yells.

He throws me into the ground again. I lose my sword.

"No... you couldn't have." I spit out blood.

"Now I won't." He throws me into the wall again.

This isn't good. This isn't good- my vision was blurring. My strength was fading. I can barely breathe. The dirt is filling my lungs. The poison air is chocking my lungs. There are cuts and bruises on my arm. It slams me down again. He walks over to me. He slams his hand into my face. I wince as it claws in. He lifts my head up.

"You should have listened to me." He says.

"I would rather die." I spit blood into his face.

"Alright, if that's what you want." He shoots his hand out. 

The vine throws me over the ledge. The air grips and turns me. There are screams. I look down at the ground and I see a graveyard. My eyes widen. He's been leading me to my grave this whole time. He has deceived me and now I cannot stop him. I cannot stop his wrath as he has turned me into roots. He has turned me into dirt. He has cursed my soul. There is nothing I can do to stop this. I wince as I feel pain. I look and see a spear impaling me. I reach up to the sky but it is too far.
