Artifacts

The forest is littered with suits, bodies and weapons. Red, brown and black are the new colors of what was once a delicate, lush forest, which has now become the stage of a bloody war. The air which would normally be rich with scents from nearby breweries is now thick with the scent of death and decay, a sight of pure nightmares.   Two barely trained groups fight each other for control of the area, but the battle is in nobody's favor yet. The wounded of one side are scattered across the forest and the faces of the fighters are hopeful with victory in mind and nervous, yet steady breathing, they courageously fight on.   With both confidence and panic the other side courageously fights their enemies with the hope of being the stronger side. Some have succumbed to terror and are no longer capable of moving, let alone defending themselves, while others fight on in the hopes to survive this terror.   The toll on both nature and humanity is enormous. It'll likely take a lifetime before this forest will have recovered. It's clear gore, explosion holes and metal have taken the place of shrubs, plants and trees.   what happened here and who is responsible for this senseless slaughter?
