''The ground there was soft and sticky, and the air was pungent and wreaked of decay. I could feel it coming, the subtle shifts in the air, the unnatural trembling in that red tinged soil. Though, despite the fact that I knew it was coming, I was not prepared to the sight of it, as it clawed it's way around the scored stone of that pit.

The reason for this is believed that when a fungus beast comes up from underground, and finds itself severed from the roots that kept it alive, it must find another source of nutrition, and it finds it in living things. |
