Before moving onwards, please skim over the original post and the comments if you want a more detailed version.

Ive kept close tabs to all of your ideas and suggestions and tried to compile it into a visual translation along with a poll. YAY! The air, it is different here. I cannot place my finger quite on what it is... I press onwards regardless, through massive fronds and vines that are obscuring my path. The path widens, it becomes much easier to navigate this harsh land. I can see my destination ahead of me. The Guardian's Door. Even though it is modern in appearance, towering scores of meters tall and wide and composed of a foreign gray-black substance, the vines and trellises have done a fantastic job melding it into its surroundings. I found it almost peculiar how the tiniest of vines have found their way into the crevices of the engravings splayed across the entirety of the Door. It was fitting. It [i]belonged[/i]. The moment of truth has arrived. I step closer, remove my helmet and let it fall from my hands, and breathe heavily... Nervously. The condensation of my breath clings to the face of the Door, but only for a moment, then it is gone. I raise my bare hand, trembling, and begin to move it forward. Closer... Closer... It feels colder than I expected it to, given the time of day and tropical setting, I expected it to sear my hand. My heart skips a beat. [i]It didn't work![/i] But just as I had nearly lost faith, a sharp jolt of electricity strikes my palm! From where I made contact, a dull blue light shimmers across the face of the Door, not unlike the ripple effect seen when you drop a stone into a lake. Only the light is increasing in frequency and intensity, until nearly the entire Door is bathed in blue light! [i]Its beautiful![/i] And then its gone. I await. And finally, I hear it. The soft sound of the internal components moving is reassuring. I step back and watch. The door seems to fold into itself, leaving an opening roughly the same size and shape as the doors back home. Home... It has been a long time. But soon... Never mind that, I can see my destination. The Ethereal Grove. My eyes well up at the sight of it. It is much more beautiful than the stories and my imagination could have ever painted. As far as my eyes can see, Guardian's trees tower in different stages of development. I see saplings, with their young, hopeful auras. And those towering Ancients! Magnificent to behold! I walk towards the closest one, to discover what I might about it's owner. Engraved in that gorgeous blue bark is the name the Guardian bestowed upon it. [i]Freyja[/i]. Im unsure to its origins, but it clearly meant a lot to it's owner. And right next to that engraving is an old assault rifle, I don't bother touching it, it wouldn't matter. I look up, high up in the branches I see tendrils of blue playing amongst the foliage. The [i]Sjinrah[/i], or memories of the Guardian. I find myself already moving my hand towards the base of the tree, and as soon as I make contact, the Sjinrah all rush across the bark and into me! My mind's eye is flooded with the experiences and memories of the owner of this tree, if I focus, I can see specific instances. Glorious battles. Depressing reminders. Views from the top of the Tower. A friend. I release my hand, and a tear falls from my eye. This. [i]This[/i] is beauty. It is my time. I venture through the forest for a little while longer. I have found a place, nice and open, surrounded by the young and the old. I reach into my bag and remove a small black silk bag. Releasing the contents onto my palm. My seed. From the moment it touches my skin it glows blue, like they do. Otherwise unremarkable, for now. I get on one knee and stoop lower. I do not have to dig deep. Sowing my Destiny into this land, amongst others. There's something about it. And it did not take long for me to realize. I [i]belong[/i]. This is my [i]home[/i]. This is [i]beauty[/i]. This... Is my [b]Destiny.[/b] And there you have it! I hope you all like it, I did not put much time into it, as time is not something that I have much of. So I kinda just poured my imagination into it. I hope that it is understandable. So now its poll time! Please vote and if you have any more ideas please add them in the comments below! Edit-- Check it out yall!
