The Uncharted Forest: A Short Story
Exactly 10 years ago, I escaped along with Gaea to the Uncharted Forest. We found an abandoned home from the Unmentionable Times. I still remember the time I saw the Unspeakable Word, and I cried out of happiness when I grasped the meaning of it. I took the name Prometheus and I took the name Gaea for my beloved. Since then, we have established a self-sufficient home and we have been living according to our desires. Gaea gave birth to two wonderful kids: Leon, our eldest, and Leona, our youngest. I talked to Gaea last night about a plan that I have been thinking for a past few days. “Gaea,” I said to her before we went to bed. “Why?” “I was thinking of going to the city tomorrow to bring some people home.” “What for?” she asked. “I told …show more content…
“We have been here for a couple of days now, and we were thinking of going back to the city. We escaped to the Uncharted Forest because we committed the Transgression of Preference,” Prosperity 5-9312 told me. “I have my wife with me, Gaea, and we also have our children Leon and Leona. We live in the middle of the forest, in a home from the Unmentionable Times. Do you want to join me?” “We would gladly so,” Unity 3-4691 answered, and we started our journey home. By the time we arrived at our home, it was time for dinner. Gaea and the kids happily welcomed us and we joined them for dinner. After we ate dinner, Gaea and I spoke to Unity 3-4691 and Prosperity 5-9312 about our plans. “Welcome to our family,” said Gaea. “We would like to know what these new words that they are saying. We have never heard of these words and we are curious to know what they are.” “It is the Unspeakable Word. Since we are not part of the city anymore, we are allowed to say it whenever you want. Because of this, you will also need new names, which we will provide,” I answered back, and they were delighted when they heard these words. “Unity 3-4691, from now on, you shall be named Agatha,” Gaea told to Unity

    “I remember tears streaming … your face … I said I'll never let you go … all those shadows almost killed your … … you said don't leave me … alone But … that's dead and gone … tonight.” Strikes of swift white light struck innocent trees, as wind howled and rain battered against the shield that separated me from the outside.

My face was a river, water tumbled from the top of my head to the bottom of my chin.…
