The Green

The Green is an elemental force that connects all forms of plant life on Earth.

At the beginning of creation, the master of the forest lords, Sila, seeded the planets with potential for life. In the Sol system, the seeds took root on three different planets: Earth, Jupiter, and another which has since been destroyed. On the doomed planet evolved a collective fungal consciousness who thrived on the frequency of The Grey. On Earth, plants evolved through The Green.

A meteor from the destroyed planet introduced The Grey, and fungul life, to Earth. It's drive to spread, consume, and break down its hosts.

Though The Green and The Grey coexisted in relative peace for a time, the dawn of man and its potential for destruction led Matango to tempt them with fruit from the Tree of Knowledge. The result prompted a war between the two elemental forces; a war which forced the Parliament of Trees to leave the Garden of Eden to the ice and snow.

Since that day, flora and fungi continued to coexist as the result of a compromise.
