It was a dark forest.
One where light couldn't enter no matter how much it tried.
Like a sponge is sucked in everything and left nothing.
Darkness was the ruler with the dark forest only an extension of it and nothing else dared to challenge its rule as it encompassed everything.
There was no sound, only silence.
An eerie silence that would send shivers down the spines of the faint-hearted.
At the center of such a despicable forest, a cocoon was placed.
It looked like thick black goo molded together with black tentacles emerging from it and touching every single tree within proximity.
It throbbed ominously like a heartbeat with thick black goo leaking from the bark of the trees.
Plop
As the black goo touched the ground, there was a crack in the cocoon.
Suddenly another crack appeared and just like that, it began to spread like a spider web.
Bam
A hand emerged, it was pale and thin with the veins underneath the skin bulging out.
