[STORY]
The games overall story is; there's a Forest called "The Forest Of Ether" and in this Forest all is eternal. Similar to the biblical story of Eden, but more akin to an entire spirit realm where beings who have "vibrated high enough" go. In this Forest there is a Monk who decided to follow a prophecy that's known in certain parts of this vast Forrest of a place called
"The Center Of The Forest". Many know of this prophecy but disregard for some say the fact that their souls made it to
'The Forest Of Ether' then they'll be fine without following the prophecy (the dark), and then you have some who dedicates their new found life in 'The Forest Of Ether' to walking the path of the prophecy (the light).
The story then goes on to this monk
(the player) Discovering the location of
'The Center Of The Forest' isn't a physical location but a state of being and when that state of being, state of mind is registered within the soul by meditation, realization and truth, then the Forest itself creates 'The Center Of The Forest' around the soul who became simply "Enlightened". Once this happened the "Dark" and "Light" found out, and now they're both heading towards to monk. The light to transmute the dark and the dark to break the concentration of the Monk so
'The Center Of The Forest' dematerializes itself.
