Overview
In the ruins of humanity’s downfall, a hybrid plant was born, flourishing in the fertile soil of human waste. Adapted to thrive in the nitrogen-rich nutrients found in human feces, this abomination grew monstrous proportions, its long arms spreading everywhere on the ruined land.
 
As it multiplied unchecked, the plant’s hunger led it to devour everything in its path, including unsuspecting humans. With each passing day, its size and ferocity only grew, leaving humanity facing an unavoidable fate as the relentless predator continued its relentless assault. Caught in a cycle of decay and destruction, humanity found itself helpless against this terrifying adversary, its once-proud civilization reduced to easy prey for the monstrous hybrid plant. 

 

In the end, as the last remnants of humanity were consumed by the unstoppable growth of the carnivorous abomination

, the Earth stood silent

 

, a grim testament to the hubris of mankind.
