Slowly, things started to settle down once more in Ed's mushroom forest. The things that settled included magical mosquitoes, which were somehow using his mushrooms to increase in numbers, and other sorts of bugs that benefitted from the water mana in the area.
'The other forests are still too competitive for them' But that didn't mean Ed could relax. On the contrary, that all of these weaklings were coming to him was horrible.
They were all starved or battle-hardened from having escaped the hell of the other mushrooms. The mosquitoes for example had managed to kill more than just a couple of water mushrooms.
They would suck water out of them as if they had just run a marathon. Some would drink this monstrous amount of water and others would transport it somewhere to position their nests.
How could Ed solve this?
