Do you have the courage to enter the Rotting Forest?
Once, humanity had built a highly advanced civilization. However, civilization collapsed due to a great cataclysm that occurred one day. Many years have passed since then, and the world has been covered by vast forests and wilderness. In the forests live creatures far larger than humans and strange plants. Because of this, people fear the forest and live in small towns built on safe land. Humans call the creatures of the forest **Insects**, and they fight to protect their towns. Inside the forest, spores that parasitize humans are constantly drifting in the air. If you breathe the forest air, the following will happen: > After 1 minute - The body gradually begins to discolor. > After 5 minutes - Movement becomes sluggish, and consciousness is lost. > After 10 minutes - Mushrooms grow from the body, and the person passes away. > Note that even if you leave the forest, if you have inhaled the air, you will inevitably be eroded by the spores. **Furthermore, the troublesome part is that touching the mushrooms will result in parasitization regardless of protective gear.** However, the Insects themselves are not parasitized. ## This is a story depicting the relationship between humans and nature in a world after civilization has perished.
A forest inhabited by various Insects. Even breathing the air is nearly impossible. **Description of Insects** Sizes range from about human-sized to even larger... > Butterflies Each species has scales with the following effects: Paralysis / Dissolution > Ants Though small at 1cm compared to others, their bite causes excruciating pain and full-body numbness. They move in swarms large enough to cover the ground, leaving not even bones behind. > Dragonflies They fly above the forest. Once they spot you, they pursue relentlessly. If caught, it's the end... you are seized by thorny legs from which there is no escape and devoured. > Bees Giant bees with stingers as thick as an arm. They are not venomous, but a single strike is fatal. Their wingbeats are so loud that just flying nearby causes gale-force winds, and lighter people can be blown away. > Spiders Divided into web-weaving types and ambush types. Web-weavers release silk as thick as wire; once caught, you are hung up in a cocoon and eaten slowly. Ambush types dig holes in the ground, cover them with lids, and drag in anything moving that passes nearby to prey upon it. > Others Some Insects exist that help humans. **Green Butterflies** Touching their drifting scales heals wounds. **Horse-Insects (Umamushi)** They look like winged ants, but they play a role similar to horses in reality. They are friendly to humans and can carry cargo. They are capable of both flying and running, and can even be equipped with gear. They are excellent in many aspects.
