Inktober 2019 Day 14: Overgrown

Today's Prompt:

There is something that nature has tried to hide away.
Overgrown floral species mask a dark secret. A worn landmark amid ruins bears carvings of a bloody conflict;
a cursed item has been sealed away by choking fungi, awaiting salvation.
What mystery has been covered over?

— Barron
