Brand New Life Online: Rise Of The Goddess Of Harvest

Titania woke up in the middle of the night as she heard the panicking screams and voices of countless fairies running away in horror. An enormous army of snakes, crows covered in shadows, and walking mushrooms attacked the village, destroying the walls, the houses, the crops the fairies had been growing, and even attacking the fairies themselves. Many of them ended in the floor, dead. Titania’s heart was beating faster, as if everything in her world was crumbling apart. And to boot, something even more horrendous was happening, the tree was covered by darkness.

She saw several figures over the enormous and glorious tree. A giant black mushroom spreading spores that infected the tree’s bark and weakened it, absorbing all of its nutrients. A furious and enormous crow devouring all the tree’s leaves, flowers, and fruits, and destroying all of its branches with black magic.

And… a giant and furious purple and black snake, biting and poisoning the tree’s roots with her venom, viciously infecting it. The entire tree was falling apart into pieces in just a few minutes since they started attacking with their newfound power, as the darkness of miasma infected the Great Tree and devoured every little bit of life it had left…

“No… No…!”

Titania panicked; she couldn’t believe what she was seeing.

Those were her friends, those three were the ones she grew up with, her beloved family. The ones she had been missing almost every night when she felt alone and without being distracted by all the work that the fairies gave to her.

Despair quickly took over her heart, as her eyes began to cry, her entire body trembled in horror. Her friends were devouring her mother, the Great Tree. Tearing it apart mercilessly, destroying it, poisoning it…

Wasn’t the tree also their mother?

It seemed as if they didn’t cared…

“NOOOOO!”

Titania cried, as an eruption of enormous quantities of magic emerged out of her body, she quickly grabbed every survivor in her village and the last branches that fell from the tree and quickly flew away into the safety, creating a realm using her powers and leaving her children there.

“Mother! What is happening?”

“Mama… everyone’s dead…!”

“I am scared…”

“Ugh… it hurts…”

“The darkness… there’s darkness everywhere… everywhere!”

Her children panicked, despair quickly taking over their young minds.

Titania couldn’t answer, she didn’t know what to even say, what to even do…

“STOOOP!” 𝘦.

She flew into the skies, as enormous quantities of magic emerged from her entire body, divine spiritual essence flowed, summoning the power of life, light, and nature. Her enormous presence quickly made her former friends look at her, as the tree was long past the return point, dying and falling into pieces…

“Saphee! Huginn! Terra? Why?! Why are you doing this?! What has gotten into you?! Who are these monsters?! What… is happening?!”

Titania desperately cried for an answer, but her former friends looked at her with hate and scorn…

“What’s happening is something you deserved…!” Huginn said.

“You’ve abandoned us…” Terra said.

“This is merely karma!” Saphee roared furiously, suddenly attacking Titania.

“Wait! What are you…? No…! Please stop! I don’t want to fight with you!” Titania cried, as she created barriers to shield herself from their attacks.

“We’ll devour everything you love, Titania!”

“After you’ve broken our hearts, we have nothing but hate!”

“We’ll destroy everything you love, everything that is precious to you!”

Their voices, their minds, their very natures had changed… Titania knew something strange, a being was taking over their minds and bodies.

“Please stop… PLEASE!”

FLASH!

In between tears, a flash of brightness emerged from her body, so bright and powerful that it began to burn all the monsters, turning them into ashes. Meanwhile, the enormous giants felt pain and agony, their entire bodies began to burn.

“CRAAAAHH…!”

“AAAGHH…!”

“GRYYAAAAHH…! Damn you, Titania! I hate you! I HATE YOU!”

Saphee roared furiously, as she and the other two flew away in fear of being damaged further. Titania’s light encompassed the surrounding forest, covering it with light, they ran and ran further and further, hiding in the darkness where the light couldn’t reach them…

And as the sun rose in the horizon, Titania found herself sitting in the middle of ashes, the entire Great Tree was destroyed and burned by the miasma and the venom. Tears endlessly flowed from her eyes, as those tears began to fall over the ground in front of her.

“No… Mother…!”

She touched the branches as they all crumbled apart. The beauty and spiritual aura of her mother, the Great Tree, was nowhere to be seen. Only her dead carcass remained, not even the roots were spared.

“Why… Just why…?!”

As Titania cried regretfully, she noticed a small sapling who have survived everything. It was so small and frail, but it still emanated a small fragment of the power of the Great Tree.

“Ah…”

She flew towards it, hugging it and protecting the sapling, quickly grabbing it out of the corrupted dirt, and infusing magic and life into it as she flew away, planting it elsewhere, far from the miasma.

“You’re the last thing left from her… You’re… the tree of beginnings…”

The small sapling seemed stubborn, growing bigger and bigger despite the darkness infecting the forest. It slowly developed resistance against the darkness, even though it slowly devoured the rest of the forest covering the continent, this small patch of the forest remained, and was named the Forest of Beginnings by Titania and the Fairies that survived.

Saphee, Huginn, and Terra remained alive, lurking in the darkness, and growing their numbers once more, conquering the land and infecting it with darkness. However, the continent itself had a will of its own, and the Gods were not going to let this darkness, originating from the Demon King of Miasma, to take over another continent.

They fought back, from overseas, humans conquered this new and barren land, and dwarves emerged from the depths of the ground in the mountains. Elves who survived the catastrophe of another continent emerged here as well, wandering the endless grasslands. The deserts were populated by desert elves and Dragonoid, and live flourished even in this land devoid of the former glory it once held.

Titania slowly grew older, she overcame the sorrow she felt, but never truly felt like she was able to forget what happened there, even after eons…

Until a certain human arrived in her forest, thousands of years after everything happened. The strangest of things was that he had become the friend of the Myconid, a race of Mushroom People that dwelled in a small tribe in this forest… He was strange indeed, but held a beautiful and radiant smile, and an honest heart.

“My name is Lucious; I am a Knight of the Luminous Kingdom. It is an honor to see the Queen of Fairies.”
