Aster

*The updates of this story will be slow*

When Aster begins writing strange poems she doesn't remember composing, she brushes it off as artistic obsession. Until the words start etching themselves into trees-until her hands won't stop.

Then she vanishes.

Told in alternating perspectives between a mother desperate to find her daughter and a girl haunted by a spectral presence in the orchard, this is a story about memory, faith, and the terrifying cost of being seen.
