Dante and the others finally came back from the black creek pub they are here finally at our nice mellow campsite. Everything was normal nothing was stolen or out of place yet I still had a nervous feeling. The vibe was completely off to me I felt like I was the only person who noticed. Everyone was very exhausted from the canoeing and partying at the black creek pub I'm surprised they didn't run into those angry Edge lord bikers with the cool jackets.
I watched as the bright yellow sun was setting.
I watched multiple various beautiful birds. Like blue jays and robins soar the sky. There was the sound of cicadas making mating calls and the sound of wood getting pecked by woodpeckers. I noticed that there was a large swarm of lightning bugs. I watched as squirrels that had different color coats interacted with each other and ate food.
Oscar and Dante were the only two people present chilling at the campfire. Everyone else was in their tents. I grabbed firewood and logs then dumped them in the big campfire. I then joined Oscar and Dante taking a seat on the opposite end of Oscar. I listen As Oscar is telling an urban legend about these woods. Oscar then said have you guys ever heard of the tale. The legend of the goat men of the black woods.
It was like the 1970s a lot of teen couples would camp and do various other teenage things. It said that there are creatures that stand over six feet tall.
They have the upper hand of a goat. But the lower have is humanoid. They had plantigrade-like legs with goat hoofs. They have a foul Stench that is so awful that if a mortal inhale too much of it can kill the victims of the goat men.
The goat men make high-pitched screams that can break glass easily. The screams can even drive humans mad. They also cradle tools of men mainly axes. The goat men hunt sometimes alone but usually in most cases hunt in large packs. With the leader of the pack. The leader Always had large jewelry and skulls the leader looked more like a Wendigo.
They cradled axes and other various weapons. The goat men weren't always an eldritch fusion. There once were 200 shepherds they would only hear goats. They were a very peaceful Gypsy-like people they had strong good morals. One day a group of bandits who had packs of wolves pet planned an attack on the village slaughtering all of the livestock and injuring all the shepherds.
That drove the shepherds into a rage so much so that they put on the goat head mask and mutated somehow into the half goat half man demon creature or some. The locals think that the shepherds turn to old evil magic. Another theory is that satan himself watched it all in after the shepherds were badly wounded he took their souls in cursed them to be goat demons. As a sick and twisted cruel joke. There is another theory that the Shepard were so angered that they ate the goat head raw then killed themselves their souls then mutated and fused with the souls and flesh of the goat transforming them into the goat men.
Then Dante said so why do they hunt teenagers.
Oscar then said Bro will you get yo I am brandon lee from the crow without the makeup-looking ass would you let me finish. The goddam story anyway the reason why the goat men killed them is for food, pleasure, and twisted revenge they also are afraid of wolves and will run or fight to the death if they see a wolf or even a canine-like being. Some goat men will make clothing made from the bones and the skin of humans and wolves. they also have a deep jealousy of the love that resonates from young love and so the scents of lust drive the goat men wild similar to how sharks go crazy at the scent of blood. Me and Dante were laughing because of Oscar's joke it was hilarious and it brightened. our moods as chilled at the big campfire.
Then Dante started to talk about another local legend. Dante then said have you guys ever heard of the great black fall of the goat of Mendes. So long ago during the age of the watchers. The angels of God took the wives of men. Azazel was the first watcher to betray god and told the Some of secrets of heaven to men. Azazel is the father of the Rephaite, Gibborim, and Nephilim. the Nephilim viewed Azazel as a god and the watchers as other lesser gods. Samyaza was the first angel to mate with animals. He created the monster of the earth like Leviathan and other creatures who could dream and see the vision but had lesser knowledge compared to the Nephilim.
Azazel was only second to Lucifer In beauty so god cursed Azazel to become a horrid demonic god-like being. Azazel felt so much rage that he changed his name to the Goat of Mendes to truly show god that he was against him. God then banishes him and his fellow brothers to the wilderness. They will rule the woods until the day of judgment. That's another reason why people think these woods are cursed. Because these were the woods that Azazel was cursed to rule. God sent the angel Azrael the angel of death to kill all the monsters and offspring of the watchers in forced them to watch all their sons die in front of them. The flood was Azrael's final attack on all of the watcher's children. God cursed The watchers to have immortality until the day of the final judgment.
Oscar then said I have another local legend also conspiracy about the black creek. A long time ago a UFO crashed deep into the black woods. It had goat-like aliens that had intelligence far greater than humans. So do you guys remember how I told you that slaves who were persecuted by slave hunters and owners hid in the black woods because the slave masters were very afraid of the black woods? After all, no one would even hunt or travel in these woods.
The goat-like aliens were looked at like gods because they had organic biological technologies. The humans and the aliens would create hybrids. That resembles a human body but a goat head. One day the local super religious xenophobic people of the local church all gathered their forces arming themselves with pitchforks and other weapons. They were planning an attack on the aliens because they thought they were monsters. This was the first time in years they decided to step into those woods due to superstition views.
The preacher of the local church was an evil man. His name was Jim Jones a cult leader of the black creek baptist church. They said Jim Jones went mad one day when he was younger when he encountered one of the aliens. He formed a cult and then from there, he would dive into a lot of depravity. He would truly accept all to brainwash and mold them into the perfect tools. He leads the attack on the goat aliens and free slaves. He kept saying Leviticus 17:17 so they shall no more sacrifice their sacrifices to goat demons whom they who're over. This shall be a statute forever for them. Through their generations. Jim Jones killed all the humans and aliens. He tortured all the hybrids and burned the village down.
Jim Jones even stole all of the advanced books and some of the technologies. Before he killed the humans and aliens. Jim Jones would say this to them. I am the hand of god I'm the angel Azrael.
