The root
The lush greenery, vitality, and the fragrant scent that permeate the forest owe their existence to the roots. Serving as the forest's beating heart, the roots remain unassuming and modest, never seeking recognition or praise. Hidden beneath the soil, they work tirelessly, rarely seen by the world above. Yet, they hold no concern if their efforts go unnoticed. Their selfless nature is evident as they generously provide nourishment to the leaves, flowers, and vines, despite their contributions being scarcely visible to others. The forest is well aware of the root's extraordinary abilities, but it remains steadfast in its humility and unpretentiousness.
