The 3rd Moon - Part 2

Naarahk was a warrior from the jungle tribe. He had fought in the corewar with the jungle tribe and remembered still the bloody battlefields and the cries of the dying. He remembered the horrors of The Shattering. He had been in the forest ruled by the Element Lord of the Jungle when The Shattering had occurred. He remembered warriors trying to find something to grab onto so as not to be thrown off into space. He remembered saying goodbye to his friend very dear Vastus as they had been separated onto different planets. Vastus was now on Bara Magna and Naarahk was on Bota Magna. Naarahk could see Bara Magna through the trees of the Grand Jungle. He thought he saw a small patch of jungle on Bara Magna where Vastus probably would be but he wasn’t sure. Naarahk was traveling through the Grand Jungle going back to the village of the jungle tribe. He liked to take long walks in the jungle. Suddenly there was a loud cry from overhead. With horror, Naarahk realized that he was only 10 feet away from a giant birds nest. This bird was called a Kuo bird. They made their nests in the ground and were very protective of their young. Naarahk pulled out his vine sword and mace. The giant bird swooped down and dove at Naarahk. Naarahk stepped to the side. The bird had a long neck and a long and very sharp beak. It was colored green and brown. It could easily blend in with the forest. It had large talons on both feet. The bird swooped back around and dove at Naarahk again. This time, Naarahk stepped aside and hit the bird on the head with the flat of his sword. The Kuo bird fell to the ground and didn’t get back up again. Naarahk ran over to it and saw that it had gotten knocked out but that there was no further injury. Naarahk found a small stream of water and dumped some of the water on the birds head. The bird’s eyes fluttered open. Naarahk patted it on the head and went on his way again.
