Part II, Man's Corruption
The passing of time saw the tree become legend; its name now long lost. Man walked the earth now, perfect and innocent, and among them all the animals. But the red serpent conspired, for it had been born shrewd and resented God's love toward man.
The serpent approached a man and said to him "Why is it you have never climbed up that mountain?"
The man said to the serpent, "The way is arduous and God has forbid us from attempting such a trek."
"God loves you and gave you all the earth," The serpent said, "Surely he would want you to see all of it."
Then the man looked towards the mountain and saw that the path was not so long, and that the view from the top must be glorious. And so the man climbed after the serpent for 3 days and 3 nights. When he reached the top he beheld God's tree that had been kept secret. The man suddenly felt a strange sensation between his legs. His member swelled and burst, such was the ecstasy the man cried to the heavens.
The Lord God heard man's cry and called out "What is this you have done?"
The man said, "The serpent deceived me, and I came."
So the Lord God said to the serpent, “Because you have done this,
“Cursed are you above all things
You will walk the earth as mortal
and you will eat cheetos
and thirst for mountain dew all the days of your life.
And I will curse all your offspring with a head of fire
They will lay with women but lust for men,
and banished be they to an eternal basement;
The sun will burn their skin,
with beards that only touch thine necks.”
To the man he said,
“Cursed is the ground because of you;
through painful toil you will eat food from it
all the days of your life.
You will lust for all things timber
and carnal desires never satiated
until you return to the ground,
since from it you were taken;
for dust you are
and to dust you will return.”
And so the Tree had been so warped by man's desires, even God could not look upon it. He took from it all its wood and gave it to the man. and said
"Go forth and build cities as testament to your shame, banished you are from these lands in all its abundance"
And so the cursed two set out, the man to the west to present day Dustruil and the serpent to the far east, to lament far from sight of the holy land.
