The forest was just like Leon remembered it from earlier in the day. Lush, healthy, and extremely fragrant.
A place far better and more comforting than any forest that was left on the face of Leon's home planet.
The forest was full of life... yet, it was devoid of it at the same time.
The greenery was thick, the trees were tall and thick and the undergrowth made for an extremely soft floor. There were thousands of different plants scattered all over the place...
And yet, not a single animal was in sight.
'This doesn't look like a forest that people are scared of,' Leon thought, slowly cutting through the thicker parts of the forest as he heralded the entire procession. 'It's too silent, way too silent,' he thought, squinting his eyes...
Only to end up closing them altogether.
'But I can't say I dislike this silence.'
Leon closed his eyes and allowed the tranquility of the place to fill his soul.
