A dying Village that strangely enough never seems to die. Home to a small faithful remnant, unwilling to leave their home. When all seems lost, a light in the darkness appears, in the form of a young woman. This stranger brings light and hope back into their crumbling home, bringing things long gone, love and leadership. Unfortunately every action has a reaction, and not all of them are good. Not everyone has good intentions and sometimes you have to learn to lie, and to be careful who to trust. Join the journey and grow with the Village of Venna. Learn the truth of ancient mysteries, and what it takes to be the lord of a dying Village.

Finding You by ccstoriess
16 parts Ongoing Mature
Rolford Town. A place I never heard of until the day we packed up and left everything behind. They said it was for a fresh start, but I knew better. You can't outrun ghosts; they cling to you, no matter how far you go. It started off quietly, just like every other town. There was hope for a peaceful life. But it was all a delusion. A naive delusion. At first, I thought it was just the move, just the adjustment. But then things started to change. I changed. It was like this place knew my secrets, knew my fears, and it fed on them. It wasn't long before everything I held onto started slipping away again. Every fragile bits of normalcy I had managed to piece together after that happened. Everything around began to crumble, faster than I could grasp. It felt like the town was swallowing me whole, dragging me into some dark, twisted underworld where nothing made sense. The wounds I tried so hard to patch up were only ripped wider, and deeper by this disgusting place and its people. And yet, I didn't run away. I couldn't. I couldn't when I found you. The you everyone warned me about. The you who was just like me, or so they said - aggressive, intimidating. I was drawn to you, maybe because I saw my own shattered pieces reflected in your eyes. We were both drowning, but somehow, being around you felt like I was breathing again, even if it was just for a moment. But even that.. even that was twisted here. I couldn't leave. Not now. Not when there was still something, or someone, worth fighting for. My brother needed me, even if he didn't know it. And you.. there was something about you that I can't let go. Maybe together we can find a way out of this darkness, break free from whatever curse this town held.
