Ye Xu successfully completed her field ecology survey. She had just written the final period of her report when she opened her eyes to a lush forest. The manuscript she'd finished was flying freely through the sky.
Ye Xu: My promotion!
She reached for it, but several vines shot through the air and snatched away the pages.
Ye Xu: "?"
She tried to blink and moisten her retinas. Instead, moisture rose through the forest, rain clouds gathered, and a torrential downpour began. Floodwaters surged through the woods.
A panicked black deer, dazed by the rain, slammed its head into her lower leg with a solid thud.
A local by the roadside jumped three meters into the air, shouting, "The sacred deer has guided us! A god has descended!" before running for his life.
"Ding dong!"
[Dear survivor, welcome to the Rainforest instance. Please build a camp as soon as possible, light a bonfire, fend off miasma, floods, and poisonous creatures, and ensure your safety.]

Ye Xu: (smiles)

Roots twist and tangle beneath the earth, and venomous creatures lurk everywhere. Countless survivors are forced to enter the forest and struggle to stay alive.
Then one day, an idea guy, driven mad by his torment, clapped his hands and decided to bow to the rainforest alongside the locals. He danced and hollered around the bonfire. His fellow survivors watched in dismay, sighing over his fate.

Survivor One: Another one's gone crazy.
Survivor Two: This guy's eating poison dart frogs like crazy!
Survivor Three: It's normal to turn to superstition when you're losing it.
Survivor Four: Holy crap, why is he fine?!
Survivor Five: Wait, are these locals' gods actually real?!!!
Survivor Six: (bows down) (pledges loyalty) (offers all my supplies) Tree god, I'm starving, please save me!
Ye Xu looked at the few pitiful offerings on the ground, her gaze gradually turning resigned. "Tch."
Hello, littering isn't allowed here.
