Enkidu - Controls forest

“Master, I’d like you to wait here… just for a little while.”

Enkidu brushed the cheek of the silver wolf, who looked at him with anxious eyes. Then, he knelt on one knee before his Master, and softly splayed his fingers in the earth. “It will be all right.” As Enkidu smiled, the surrounding trees began to rustle. “The forest will protect you.”

They were suddenly concealed from the sky by a frantic movement of branches and leaves, and powerful mystic energy began to flow into the earth. It was as if the forest had a will completely of its own, and deliberately formed a natural magical barrier.

“I have to go. If I meet him here, the forest would be killed, and I’d have no way to protect you. Can you forgive me?”

“-------”

Enkidu hugged the silver wolf as it gave a feeble howl.

“Thank you, Master. As long as life beats within this breast of mine, I swear to return to you.”

At the same time that Gilgamesh had disappeared from the company of Tiné and her allies, Enkidu also made a single stride on the earth.

He was as modest as the wind, and as pious as a spring. Having said that, the joy expressed in Enkidu’s powerful footsteps was no less than that of the King of Heroes.

“...This is bad. Let’s leave the forest.” Faldeus, sensing an anomaly, ordered his men to retreat over the radio.

“What’s going on?”

“The flow of mana has changed. It is likely that the woods are now under its control.” As he said this, Faldeus felt an enormous power streaming through the forest. Silently, without harming the woods, it moved as if gliding upon the earth. One could even call it the wind. In awe of the presence of this Heroic Spirit that had become one with the forest, Faldeus confirmed its bearing, and then issued orders to his subordinates.
