The Forest
INTRODUCTION
ThE FOrEST • 1
INTRODUCTION
The map was off. The eastward bend
in the Naveh River came up more qu
ickly than
documented, leading to a dispute that
pushed well past sunset. It was Amar
—our
ranger—who saw the ruins first. Even
by torchlight, the crumbling stone fa
ce of
some vaguely human effigy was appa
rent through the hanging vines and fo
liage.
The forest had already reclaimed so
much. Once-proud pillars lay flat agai
nst the
ground, as though victim to the unho
ly tantrum of a primordial child. Copp
er basins
had tarnished to that familiar shade
of sickly green. The weather-beaten
slab
that once served as a roof had fully
collapsed in, providing only one obviou
s—and
perilous—entry point to the temple’s
inner sanctum.
Sheets of cobweb crisscrossed the ro
ughly carved passageways, though
they were easily dispatched by Amar
’s torch and Lineta’s saber. Lineta was
well regarded for her skill with a blad
e, both in her surgery practice and w
hen
negotiating with thugs. Her healing
talents had already served us well du
ring
our journey through the razor-root
grove. I would have lost more than
three fingers had she not amputated
and sutured as swiftly as she did.
It was a shame I couldn’t return the
favor.
Amar, again, was first to see what th
e temple had kept hidden all these ce
nturies.
Four black clay urns stood unmoleste
d at the center of the circular room
that
terminated the main hall. Wordlessly,
though with much exertion, Amar sl
id
off their covers one by one, allowing
Lineta and me to our own discoveries
.
Four desiccated human husks each cl
ung to a single golden metal stonefru
it.
