Pursuit & Exploitation

The Past of Bumbleweed

The Past of Bumbleweed

May 27, 2025

The town of Bumbleweed was once beautiful and bustling with life. The building's bases were made of stone, strong and sturdy, while the frames and walls of the buildings were made with the wood of the nearby trees that gave the buildings a smell of aroma that put smiles on everyone's faces. Even the roofing of the building was made with a bent design easy for water to move off the roofings. The doors were in perfect condition and the windows were clear and easy to look out of.

Everything in the town was perfect, but one thing, the beasts. Jaymir had met these beasts before, as they sounded familiar, they were the pack of beasts that he met before he met Felix. The innkeeper continued the story, telling how the beasts would harass them coming in like a storm grabbing their children, women, or anyone that looked weak for them to kill. They had to stay in their homes as they were scared of getting killed by this pack of murderous beasts.

The innkeeper said that back then the tree was blooming with life, with its truck twisting around itself to cause the trunk to be huge and thick, but it never grew any taller, but the branches would spread out with pinkish-orange leaves and bloom with flowers that flower antennas sprouted out of the flower, causing an aroma that causes insects and small bird to gather.

However, in time the buildings started to become victims of the pack of beasts, as they started to tear and scratch at the wood and doors, causing them to look like they had been warped and torn apart. Until the aroma that had a stench of death and decay rolled in like a fog of doom. The beasts ran off crying for mercy while smashing their heads and bodies into the building causing more damage to the town.

This is when the town's people heard Greemo, "Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls! Let me introduce myself, "My name is Greemo Flintspracket, and I have brought a gift to you all to get rid of those disgusting beasts!" the town surrounded Greemo and his wagon that was made of metal and black warping, yet sturdy wood. His wagon's wheels had spikes on them that tore into the ground, yet it had no animal pulling it, however, it had an engine that poured out smog and sludge into the air, which caused the smell that chased off the beasts. That is when he continued his sell pitch, "Ladies and gentlemen, I can make powerful talismans that can ward off these beasts, all I ask is a building to set up my things and allow me to live here among you."

Of course, the town wanted to live in peace again, so they agreed to take in Greemo and allow him to stay in the town. However, as time passed the town started to get sluggish and the tree started to slowly rot and decay. the town people just thought it was a bad omen, and they deserved whatever was happening.
