The Saga of the Swamp Thing
In the depths of the Happy Valley bayou, the Swamp Thing stirred, sensing a disturbance in the Green—the mystical realm that connects all plant life. A shadowy figure moved through the murky waters, disrupting the delicate balance of nature. Alec Holland, now the Swamp Thing, emerged from the swamp, his hulking form covered in moss and vines, eyes glowing with a green luminescence.
He followed the disturbance to a clearing where a dark sorcerer, Mordecai, was conducting a ritual to harness the power of the Green for his own malevolent purposes. Ancient symbols glowed on the ground as Mordecai chanted incantations, drawing energy from the surrounding flora, causing them to wither and die.
Swamp Thing advanced, his voice a deep, resonant rumble. "You do not belong here, sorcerer."
Mordecai turned, eyes blazing with dark magic. "This power will be mine, creature! Stand aside!"
