The Poison Merchant ♣Clover

I was born in the glimering forest of Clover, and lived by himself since becoming a youngling. We, the people of the forest, are a bit unsocial by nature... But we don't hate humans at all. It's just that we like our privacy in the green, and humans sometimes act all violent and arrogant. It is stressing. Many of my people aren't that convidative to those who got lost in the woods, but some would just guide them to our village to pay a visit.

But well, that was before the Great Game started. The capital of the country became an empty city, almost like a desert, and our village now looks like a swamp. The water got poisoned, only the strongest of the trees remains and a thick mist surrounds the ground in a phantasmagoric atmosphere. Many of us have gone away looking for a better place to live and raise their children. But not me... My home was far more important to me, so I decided to adapt my lifestyle all over again.

I started studying all kinds of plants, fruits and mushrooms I could find. It took a really long time, but after that I could understand what was affecting the forest. It was poisoned by the machinery of the army that destroyed my country, Clover. There wasn't a cure for that... Yet. I hope that someday, this sickness could end. This is what I'm researching for. Even though there are no satisfying results until now, my hope will guide me. Until then...

I opened a shop. Yep, a shop, result of my studies. My only companion is a black squirrel called Villain. He, like other creatures living there, got affected by the wood sickness. I often try to give him a solution of antidote to see how it works, but so far, no success. At least he is someone to talk to... Kind of. It's pretty lonely here sometimes, with no one to talk to. Yeah, I know not everyone would adventure themselves in the Poisoned Forest of Clover, but if anyone ever get lost... I could guide them, right? And also sell something, why not.
