Duskwood: A Town of Mysteries
"It may seem like any place. Cold, monotonous. But can you imagine what lurks deep in the forest of the town of mysteries? Coincidence, fate?" Vanysh Webster just moved to Duskwood, a small town that doesn't seem to be any special, but that is until a stranger, from this same town, calls her claiming to have received a message from his missing girlfriend, which contained nothing but her number. Intrigued by the events and even people related to it, she decides to enter the case and find this girl, which leads her to paths deeper than anyone could ever imagine. !!!!Brief explanation: As some of you might have noticed, the story is based on the game "Duskwood", which means the main ideas, story and characters ARE NOT mine (except for Vanysh and some others). So, the general credits belongs to everbyte and all of their creators. Another important thing is: some things that will happen are the same from the game's original story, but other's were invented by me. My intention is to give the story another perspective besides the "Main Character" that we interpret while playing (And I started writing this before chapter 9 was released). *The portuguese version can be found at my profile*Complete
