Willow Rainwolf, a metalhead and a young artist who struggled with 'mental illness', some would say. Brought up in a dysfunctional home and the only way he could let down his barriers was with his goth friends in high school or his 'imaginary friends'. Playing guitar was his escape from this cruel world, later becoming his talent. Alcohol was not the only thing his father abused, it was his mother's beauty. His mother used to be the light that held them all together, especially his father before all of the broken dreams. Ever since Willow was a child, he was always told that he was schizophrenic yet his grandfather River saw something else, his grandfather was a Shaman in his mother's hometown. He was Willow's rock before his passing, he taught him how to truly embrace his gift. Even when the world would call him 'sick'.

She begins unnamed, in order that we can slide in and out of imagining what it would be like to go through what she will. As the story progresses, names are revealed to her and she takes on layers of self in those changing names in a way that pushes her through a painful yet captivating awakening that traces the pathways of a woman coming home to her ancient self. An awakening to the discovery of loving another spiritually, like a ghost, and an awakening that equips her with the resources to fight back and liberate herself from domestic violence. She's fallen in love with a spiritual entity and does not know who he or it is. For some time, she tries to conceptualize how this entity could be a stranger she has called in, like discovering and summoning a twin flame. As the reader comes to know who this stranger is through her storytelling, they witness her societal rejection and ostracism. She's an artist and writer expressing perspective through art, but, her rural society sees only an unstable woman, so persists a life on the run. https://imgur.com/MQ5ve2H
