History[]
Season 1[]
Burt Hensey was once a slave for Baron Krow Seever up until he escaped one day when Seever ordered him to clean up the horse's shite during the night when wolves were running around the area. He tamed a wolf called Dorno and the two became best friends. He also found a land of lost people called The Forestians, and as the people have started inspiring him, they made him the leader of the cult. As the years go by, Claster builds a kingdom right on the other side of the forest, and the ruthless monarch intends to conquer more land, as Forestians begin to brutally shed blood and die. In order to stop the war, he sends his men to steal the jewel of the bird's ring and then to capture both Dunner Charlion and Conster Vile.
Eventually, Dunner and Conster are ambushed by The Forestians during the night, as they wake up in the middle of the forest after they were brought to Burt. Burt however releases them from the ropes which tied their hands and asked for their help against Claster, who brutally slaughters around 20 people from his cult each and every day. Dunner agrees to help with plessure, as Conster agrees to help only so he could spy after The Forestians for King Claster Vile.
Burt made friends with Dunner, as he even talked to him about their pasts and the two hugged each other. However, during the night, Conster sent a letter to his father thus revealing Burt's plans to attack at noon without the military of Crowada noticing. Burt gives an epic speech to his people about taking back what rightfully belongs to them and protecting each other, and after the speech finishes they start running towards Crowada.
Eventually, The Forestians and Dunner start fighting Claster's soldiers. After Claster's soldiers were defeated, Burt ordered Conster to kill his father. However, Conster revealed that he was the spy among his soldiers, and that there is nothing more important for him than family, not even friends. Conster then threw his sword into Meyara's chest, as Burt ordered his henchmen to take her immediately out of the battleground and take care of her. Dunner out of rage backstabbed Claster, and Burt won the war, but many of his Forestians were slaughtered and killed. They were offered a safe home in Treetopia, much to Burt's agreement.
Season 2[]
After settling down in Treetopia with his Forestian followers, he becomes the leader of The Forestian populace of the country as they have their own sector. He lives happily but still seeks revenge on Krow Seever for ruining his life and enslaving him in a brutal way. He tells Dunner, Shelda and Jenodus about his backstory with Seever. During the night, Seever confirms that he is going to visit the castle of Treetopia. Seever comes at midnight with his bodyguards, while Burt hides, and he hears Seever's conversation with Dunner from under a table. Seever threatens Dunner and the latter of the royal family that the kingdom shall be wiped off the map if he doesn't hand over "the slave". While Jenodus and Celestus suggested that they shall hand Burt over, Dunner protected him and implied that Burt may suffer or die if he is handed over. Burt however dissapears from the lands while he is talking as he and The Forestians go towards Jorfud to defeat Seever. One of the Forestian girls called Igna Roff however stay behind, as she tells Dunner that the others have gone to sabotage and kill Seever. Meanwhile, Seever interrogates one of his slaves, Jamalay Jestus, as he asks him where he hid the key to the Jestus family riches and diamonds. Jamalay implies that the key was gone with King Gerold Jestus, who died after his son Kluddery killed him. Baron Krow Seever ordered his lietuant Jyffer to pull out Jamalay's teeth. However, before Jamalay got hurt, Burt and his henchmen came and fought Seever's guards. Jamalay was rescued by Burt's lietuant Koldy. After the guards were killed off, Burt pulled Seever's tooth out onscreen, as he said that it's for his father. Then, he backstabs Seever for his mother. Seever congragulates him sarcastically in his last breath. Dunner then finds Burt, and offers him to return with his people to Treetopia. Burt however replies that now they can be free to occupy and rule Jorfud. Dunner however remarks that it's too dangerous for them. Burt replies that he spits into the danger's face.
Dunner leaves, as when he is back to the castle, it is revealed by Captain Joel Kooner that Burt and his military are on their way to conquer the 27 kingdoms and that the number of Forestians has grown to 2 million soldiers, since Burt has conquered so many kingdoms and he wiped off the map each and every kingdom that was an enemy or threat to him.
Season 3[]
Burt is first seen in his throne room with Jamalay, Koldy and his new girlfriend Tonda Certis. After Tonda kisses him, Koldy and Jamalay reveal that The Horde's leader Conster was recently killed. Burt replied that he knew Conster and that now he is ready to take over whatever is left from The Horde. He speaks to The Horde's second in command Scartel. He convinces Scartel to become his right-hand man and make him the next leader of The Horde. He then speaks to both The Horde and The Forestian Military and he forms a new organization combined of both forces called The Union. He announces that like they were all slaves once, now the world will be a slave to them.
After Scartel ruthlessly conquers 26 of the 27 kingdoms (discluding Treetopia), and the world becomes a dark place, Dunner and Shelda kiss each other before they go with the Treetopia soldiers to fight their last war forever, against The Union. Scartel then imprisons Burt and becomes the final leader of The Union. Scartel and his men then storm on Treetopia. Shelda reveals that she has a spell which could defeat the entire united military, which shall cause them to die instantly, at the cost of her own life. She used her final spell and caused all the soldiers to fall on the ground. Finally, Scartel is dead, and Dunner comes to rescue "his friend" from jail, secretly holding a knife behind his back. Burt apologizes for his actions, implying that he's gone a little to far with his conquering plans. Dunner however replies that he should have apologized to Shelda, before he stabs him in the heart.
