The air was rich in carbon monoxide,and rivers had disappeared from the surface of the Earth."Dad says that it wasn't like this before..."Glen thought in disappointment as he sat at the top edge of a cliff observing the forest infront of him,or being precisely,what was once a forest.
There was no such thing as green plants,it was all burnt standing tree with no leaves.The confusing thing about these trees is that,they 'smoke'.Smoke was coming out of them as it made its way to the sky, giving it an abnormal grey colour.
His village people had to go to the palace for water and food They didn't enjoy meat,the only beasts you meet with a demons that want to devour you instead.The sun was going down,atlist that's what Glen thought since the sun is always covered by smoke.
Glen stood on his feet and started walking to his home,the village between the woods."Sometimes I feel like it's not safe being surrounded by 'smoking trees' all over,"Glen smirked with a horrific thought of the place being attacked by demons."Atlist nothing has happened so far."
On his arrival,the people seemed to have no problem or moarning at all.Some greeted him and other turned their faces away from him with rejection.But this did not bother Glen at all,"As long as they don't interfere with my life,then am okay with it,".He was soon at their house's door but when he was about to push it,"Am stressed dear,three advanced demons are spotted in the smoky woods,"he overheard his father's distressed voice from inside.He later pushed in and saw his dad sitting on his wood chair with his cheek lying on his right hand that rested on the arm chair.
"Where were you?did you go into the woods?are you hurt?"Glen's mother stood from her sit as she raced towards Glen to inspect his body."Am okay mom,no need to worry,and I didn't go there, only on my usual spot,"Glen escaped from his mother's tight distressed hand grip."Be careful out there,it's not safe anymore,okay?"His dad said giving Glen a poker face."Yes dad,"Glen replied."Speaking of danger smokes,do you guys remember whose day it is tomorrow?"Glen asked.His father reacted to this by hiding his face away from the two and smiled,"Ofcourse I do son,"He thought to himself.
