Scene 1 — The Creatures Flee the City
The last remaining Eldritch beings that didn't get caught inside Tokyo are now sprinting across highways, leaping over rooftops, crawling through drainage tunnels—ANYTHING to escape the 400-meter radius of Meykami's expanding domain.
People on the outskirts report seeing impossible shapes racing across fields:
elongated limbs
inverted faces
creatures shifting in and out of existence
silhouettes running faster than cars
Some drivers swerve off the road.
Some stop and film.
Some just scream.
And Kylori?
He just keeps walking…
slow, steady, inevitable.
His presence pursues them like a shadow stretching at sunset.
---
Scene 2 — The Forest Wakes
The first wave of fleeing Eldritch creatures burst into the dense forest outside Tokyo.
The moment they cross the boundary—
the trees shudder.
Leaves tremble.
The animals flee in total silence (which is somehow worse).
Even the wind dies.
Something ancient in the forest reacts to the incoming corruption.
The sky dims slightly, as if nature itself is watching.
Some Eldritch beings leap into the canopy.
Some dig into the soil.
Others cling to trees, trembling.
They don't hide from humanity.
They hide from him.

Scene 3 — Kylori Arrives at the Forest Entrance
He steps off the asphalt and onto the dirt path, white eyes glowing even in daylight.
Shadows coil around his feet like eager wolves sniffing a trail.
The Devourer Shades dash into the darkness instantly.
The Wraiths drift through the treetops like ghosts.
Veilwalkers distort entire chunks of the forest path, bending them like torn cloth.
Kylori lifts his chin slightly, sensing the density of Eldritch signatures.
> "A… gathering?
How interesting."
His smile flickers, calm and deadly.

Scene 4 — Humans in the Wrong Place
A small group of hikers is in the forest, vibing, clueless, eating snacks.
Then they hear it:
the trees shaking,
the earth vibrating,
something BIG running through the woods.
One guy points shakily:
> "Bro… that's not a deer. That's NOT a deer—"
A huge Eldritch creature comes crashing through the brush—
but instead of attacking the hikers,
it grabs one and YEETS him aside while trying to escape deeper.
The others run for their lives.
They trip, fall, scramble—
until they see a pale figure walking calmly through the trees.
10 meters away.
Kylori.
White eyes faint.
Shadows trailing like fog.
The hikers freeze.
Not because he's threatening them—
but because the forest itself bows around him.
He doesn't even look at them.
He whispers:
> "Run.
Just not from me."
They obey instantly.

Scene 5 — The Forest Hunt Begins
This isn't a chase.
This is an invasion.
Devourer Shades pounce from treetops like black wolves.
Wraiths drag fleeing entities by their elongated limbs.
Echo Shades copy the forest creatures' movements, confusing them.
Veilwalkers twist paths so escape becomes impossible.
The smaller Eldritch beings get devoured.
The medium ones get chained by shadows.
The smarter ones try to burrow underground—
Kylori's shadow pulls them out like fish on a hook.
Everything runs.
Nothing escapes.
The forest becomes a moving maze of screams, distortions, and flickering void-light.

Scene 6 — The Hidden Anchor Emerges
Deep in the forest, a massive ripple spreads.
A tree splits open, releasing a dark pulse.
The true reason all these lesser creatures fled here is revealed.
The Forest Anchor Entity rises.
This one isn't urban-born.
It's old.
Primal.
Rooted in the soil for centuries.
Its body is an impossible fusion of:
bark
flesh
shadow
tendrils
hollowed wooden ribs
dozens of glowing green eyes
roots that twist like serpents
It towers over the trees.
And for the first time since Tokyo…
Kylori stops walking.
He looks up.
And
he
smiles.
The white of his eyes intensifies, glowing with that cold, hollow brilliance.
---
Scene 7 — The Anchor Reacts to Him
The Forest Anchor recoils, bark cracking, soil splitting beneath it.
Its roots whip around, tearing through entire trees.
It's TERRIFIED.
It recognizes him.
It tries to anchor deeper—
to extend its influence—
to burrow into reality itself.
Kylori steps forward, slow and steady.
> "You've been hiding here a long time…
Guarding this ground…
Collecting your little parasites…"
The anchor shrieks, warping the forest around it.
Trees twist.
Animals explode into static.
The ground turns to moving flesh.
Kylori doesn't blink.
---
Scene 8 — The Claim
He lifts his hand.
Shadows spiral.
The sky darkens.
The forest bends.
The anchor entity tries to flee—
roots ripping out of the soil,
entire trees collapsing—
But the moment Kylori's white eyes fully open—
reality freezes.
Every leaf.
Every sound.
Every creature.
Every ripple of the anchor's body.
Still.
Then the shadows rise like a tidal wave.
And the forest anchor is swallowed whole.
---
Scene 9 — The Calm After the Impossible
The sky clears.
The forest settles.
Birds return to treetops slowly, confused.
The hikers peek from hiding spots, shaking, filming, crying.
Kylori stands alone in a clearing that wasn't there before.
His legion gathers beside him.
He whispers:
> "Two."
The shadows shift, pleased.
He turns back toward the city, expression calm.
> "The world is waking up.
Good."
