Many of the deer in the Endless Forest honored and worshiped the Twin Gods, knowing that they were always protected under their watchful eye. They thought that the Gods' presence would be just as endless as the Forest itself. They waited anxiously for the Autumn to come, so they could once again meet a great zombie whom we call the Big Zombie Deer or BZD. The BZD hated the little deer, and often threatened them if they came close. He longed to be free from his chains, so he could stay on the land for an eternity instead of trapped for months of each year.
Little did anyone know, but the BZD himself was a god deer much like Michael and Auriea, but one of evil intent. The Twin Gods used their forest magic to keep the BZD under control, and he succumbed to their will, letting the little deer cast spells on him that in return transformed their bodies to look like his. They still were living, but had the illusion that they were of the dead like the BZD was.
One musty day, two fawns decided to play a game of tag on Twin Gods' Hill. One of them noticed something strange on the ground. He scratched at it with his little hoof, and found an old tome that was written in a strange language. The little one tilted his head at the artifact, and curiously he and his friend dug it out. The thing was circular like a wheel and looked just as old as the Twin Gods' statues, and the two noticed that it let off a strange glow.
"Let's take it to the Pond and wash it off. Maybe it's just dirty.", one of the fawns suggested. The two tried to lift the heavy stone, but as soon as they were able to get it to move, it began to roll down the hill. They shrieked in horror and tried to stop it, but it was too late - the tome rolled off and crashed into one of the stones of the Birch Forest.
