Chapter Three

('Search and Destroy' cover by Skunk Anansie)

As the swampland begins it's reformation into its beast, screams of agony and rage boom from the Founder's Keep as it becomes a face.  Limbs from the mountainside and core from the land, forcing itself upright on fours.

Beneath where it was, left cracked earth volcanic and sputtering.

A roar of pain beyond echoes through it as the beast beyond massive tries to stand.  Trees still planted on its back, stones shaken off, it swats missing at the oncoming dragon who sets fire to a still green region.

The creature struggles still to walk as a newborn remembering, falling over and over to it's fists to ground.  Rage at this as it tries forcing itself to feet.

While all the nature's animals flee these events the demons related to it cling through.  Flyers beset the dragon while the rest await the Learner who now has to climb this creature of the lands, into the brain.  

With the trees now horizontal it's simple enough with the Gecko Gun and tree planted mushrooms, but the creature immediately begins attacking the valley while taking heavy fire from the soldiers town and airships.

There is no set path you just have to figure it out.

Up !  And into the brainpan ...

The Keep.  And in it the Founder to be fought.  

The walkways once spread over the swamps for safety now hangs like hair from it, an occasional tree stuck in, like food in a old man's beard who still looks very much like a walking swamp.

The Founder himself not better, now guided dissected in his path hanging from Hell's vinework grown through the room.  Forgotten legs dangling lifelessly while the mind has taken over the body completely. 

Note it's the head, which is moving a lot and regularly bent over placing the entry wall as a floor with pitfalls, while the vines suspend the Founder ever upright.
