Story
SUBHEADER I
Vatzal has lived a pretty uneventful life. Since he and his lusus had chosen a secluded area to live, he rarely talked to other trolls and had no friends during his upbringing.
He took a big interest in the species of his lusus, and grew a hobby for keeping plants. It started when he had traveled to the city to buy rose seeds. Except, these roses were no ordinary seeds. The roses seemed eeriely lively, sometimes seen twitching or dancing. Nonetheless, he took great care in these plants, just like he had to his lusus.
SUBHEADER II
One day, he had began watering his plants as per usual. Then, when he got to a specific rose, which he had forgotten to water the day before, it sprang from its clay pot and lodged itself into his eye. Instead of trying to pry it out, he let it live in his eyesocket.
Apparently, having your eye being dissolved away for nutrients isn't really as painful as it sounds. Although unaffected by the surprise attack, he figured it would be best to stop growing such lovely roses. He'd rather keep his other eye than go completely blind.
SUBHEADER III
During one of his trips, he saw a small troll not too far from his hive. She certainly seemed lost, and she had no lusus from what she had told him. Apparently, it had died from being attacked by some kind of rabies infested beast while she was outside. Since her only caretaker was no where to be found, Vatzal decided to take her under his wing and allow her to help him with his garden.
Gardening ended up being the thing that they both mutually enjoyed, and Azrula would always be delighted to join him whenever he needed to visit the city. the end yayyy (idk how to end this)
