Bledlow Valley

In the year of 1882, there was an old wives' tale that started to circulate around many parts of North America. It was of 'Bledlow Valley' which was said to be a town full of witches and monsters that you'd only find if you wandered off into the forest too far.

It was basically used to scare children into staying close to home instead of ambling around deep into the forest. Refrain Blackwater was a woman who always enjoyed nature. She loved how beautiful it was, how nice it smelled, and oh the whispers of the wind was enough to deepen her love for the forest. Because of this, her friends always joked about her being the one who was "most likely to find Bledlow Valley."

However, when she became twenty-seven, she was walking peacefully in the forest when she found a path she'd never seen before. Intrigued, she followed the path until she became light headed. Until her body felt like she may collapse from exhaustion. Her brain became fuzzy and she couldn't remember anything more than finding the path.

She found Bledlow Valley and was welcomed very warmly by the locals. Perhaps too warmly. Life in Bledlow Valley soon becomes a sick and twisted game of manipulation and fear, everyone being puppets and their ancient, beloved deity, The Stone Mother, has all the strings in her hands.

Every full moon The Stone Mother must be fed, but The Messengers of the Famine (As the locals/cultists call themselves) are running out of sacrifices. People, rejoice! A new easily manipulated woman has wandered into town! Will Refrain escape Bledlow Valley, or will she end up in The Stone Mother's prison, bound to be devoured?
