Fantasy Plot Idea
Jal Lenn is somewhat of an outcast in his town. A mysterious group then comes to the town searching for someone. One boy/girl from the group befriends Jal. The group sees that Jal would be a valuable asset to their group so they ask for his accompaniment. Jal then agrees to go with the group in search for the special person. Jal feels as though he belongs in the group, more-so than he ever felt before, yet he can’t stop thinking that they’re hiding something. When asked who exactly this person is, the group members tell him that the person is essential to completing their task but they don’t give any more information about it. Jal makes a promise to his friend that they would stay together until the end. Jal doesn’t know what would happen in the future, so he wants to have a companion. Then the group arrives at the Great Tree of Helxlia. It is a sacred plant worshipped by Helxlia’s people. This group wishes to chop it down. Then the group reveals that Jal is the person they were searching for. They feared if they had told him their objective in the beginning, Jal would refuse to help them. According to legend, descendents of the evil which created the tree are the only ones whom could destroy it. The group explains that long ago good and evil fought in a battle. Good won, but before evil perished, the supreme ruler of darkness, Anven Litradev, sealed his power into a single seed. The seed was then said to bloom and scatter evil across the land making the world how it once was. This tree that is honored is the same as the terrible tree from Anven. Jal, disbelieved, refuses to destroy the tree and he leaves the group. His friend, though promised to stay with Jal, remains with the group.
Jal journeys back to his hometown and his life relatively resumes back to normal. One year passed since his adventure with the group and the trees effects are becoming more and more evident. Countries which were once allies then raged war with each other due to the corrupt nature of the tree (although everyone is blissfully unaware of the tree’s responsibility in the acts). Then one day, his friend from the group returns to his home. His friend begs Jal to follow his calling and to destroy the tree. Jal is still afraid and refuses to help. A foul wind carries the scent of the tree through the air. That day, his only friend died. Jal is ready to go with the intent of revenge in his mind. On the way to the tree, he is confronted by the old group. They praise Jal for making the right choice, but they also are angered on how he waited so long to realize the truth. They all go to the tree and Jal destroys it. Soon the tainted remains of the tree fade away and peace is restored. Finally, Jal and his friends return home. The End.
