The sun hasn't risen in years. The children cry without knowing why.
Trapped in a dying village, surrounded by an ancient forest full of monsters, demons, and beauty that kills, no one gets out. Anyone who wanders too far is either devoured... or comes back wrong.
There's no magic. No chosen one. Just starvation, silence, and the slow rot of hope.
Some kill. Some eat. Some vanish.
And the forest is always watching...

The whispers in the walls, the way the air shifted like someone was always watching me. I should be scared. I should leave. But there's something about him-something that keeps pulling me back. Maybe it's the loneliness in his voice. Or the way he lingers in the shadows, waiting for me to see him. All I know is... I don't think I want to run anymore.Complete
