COMPLETE

thank you so much to the deer who helped me! ?

Something resembling an abiogenesis airplane in size circled above the pond. Four long legs carefully stretched to touch the windswept ground in the only space open enough to receive the being's wide wings. Not at all graceful, the being's body lurched forward as he backpedaled to a more-balanced stop. The cob shook his body in mild frustration, the feathers throwing off a little bit of dust. He had been away long enough to collect quite a bit.

The swan-stag's long neck bent to receive a little bit of nourishing water. After a long flight, his body had grown warm enough that receiving the liquid was a real treat. He could feel it cooling his throat as it trickled toward his stomach. A low thrum signified his acute pleasure with the feeling. Hastily, greedily he gulped more of the liquid down. Only when he had developed quite the stomach ache did he decide it was time to stop. He shuddered, burping a bit.

Cygnus folded his wings to his sides, spun 180 degrees, and loped into the first forest. He did not feel like moving slowly, no matter how ungainly his giraffe-like movements were. Likely he would startle a few of the forest's more sensitive or curious folk, but like he wasn't in the mood for moving carefully, he wasn't in the mood to care either.

The beast lowered his head and leaped over a log. His body brushed low-hanging branches above as he scrambled into a thicket. As abruptly as his fast-paced journey had begun, it stopped with the stag throwing himself to the ground in exhaustion.

There, in the thicket, he lay and took in the sounds of the birds overhead and the bugs buzzing around. Again the beast thrummed low in appreciation. His jaw stretched wide in a yawn, revealing a toothless black mouth of hard material. He then chose to stare lazily at the small world he had found himself in.

by the way if someone wants to help me make back some of that money you could take a look at my new commission blog haha ;__;

The event is now over.
And so this week is coming to a close.
I would like to give my most heartfelt thank you to everyone here in the community who contributed and created so much amazing artwork and incredible writing to give their thanks to The Endless Forest. Together we raised 357.50€. That's about 483$. Let that sink in for a minute. That is an incredible amount of money.
I am very delighted to see that so many of you were so eager to participate. This would not have been possible had it not been for every single one of you. It is beautiful to see all this creativity come together in one place.
Even though the community has its difficulties, this shows that we can come together as one and create something beautiful ♥ Thank you so much everyone. It's been a blast. I hope everyone enjoyed this week.

I need to transfer the money over to paypal first which should take ~2 days. I will post a screenshot of the donation as soon as it goes through.

Look at the beautiful tree you created ♥

My DeviantArt Account and Other Musings

I know some of you are on DeviantArt, Click Here if you want to see my own account! Add me and let me know you're from TEF and I'll follow you as well!

Things I've been wondering about the game though, do people have more than one 'character'? I know that you only have the one avatar but do people who role play maybe like have different characters for different mask and pelt combinations? I'm guessing that even though the avatars are male by default, people still make female characters? I can't wait to not be a fawn and start getting masks and pelts and develop a physical identity on the game and here. I wanna draw him/her!

I'm not at all sure how this works lol! But I was wondering if someone could give Osiris his stuff? I'd like:

-Antlers: Fan
-Mask: that barn owl one (lol sorry)
-Pelt: Antelope

Thanks if you can help!

I dunno if anyone here remembers Osiris but I am back I'll have to download the game later though!
