After the Gods of Time, Nature and the Elements created this world, they took a rest under the shade of a tree they created. Thanking their creation for helping them back with its shade, they gave the tree sentience, blessed him and called him a friend.

Now the Gods are half-asleep, content with only watching. The world has breathed for millenia, and the blessed tree still watches over the forest around himself. The world has changed and his life comes to an end, surrounded by loneliness.

Gathering what's left of his strength, he passes his torch on, in the hope of giving a last goodbye to his friends, wherever they may be and whenever they would see.

Meet and follow his first and last creation he passes his will to, a one of a kind forest spirit with... abilities (wouldn't want to spoil too much here now, would I?). Curious and cute, he will travel and meet new people, discovering the world he's in, to try and give a last goodbye to the three creation gods in his dad-tree's place.

It's my first time writing a novel! So bash me as much as you like (within reason, of course). I appreciate any and all feedback.

This will be a world of humans, humanoïds, beasts, magic, and a heartwarming tale of travels across it. It won't always be butterflies, roses and friendship though, heavy moments are there too.

Also : depictions of violence, blood and gore, nudity, strong language, alcohol and other classic +17 stuff. To the reader's discretion.

Don't hesitate to stop by on my discord server for some idle chit-chat and angry complaints when the characters you're attached to get in a tight spot.

The Forest Spirit who sought the Gods

I've redone the map entirely. From hand-drawn, i've switched to a computerized version made with Inkarnate.


Not only is it prettier, it's also clearer and overall more presentable.


I've purposely not put roads/names on it because 1)they took too much space, 2)don't have the money for the paid version of the software, and 3) the map is clear enough to spot the different locations while following the story.


Here's the link (also in author note/comment because WN doesn't let you copy/paste)!


How about a map? (not a story chapter)
