A fable about what is gained-and what is lost-when progress wanders into the forest.
In a forgotten corner of the world, where trees still whisper and mushrooms remember, an ancient Spirit awakens to a sharp metallic noise that doesn't belong. Before him stands a Machine. Square. Shining. Strange. And hungry.
What follows is not a war. Not exactly. It is an unlikely meeting between life and logic, sap and steam, the eternal cycles of nature and the relentless push of technology.
This is the story of a Robot and a Spirit. One made of gears; the other of moss.
Together, they will try to understand each other.
And in doing so, they may be changed forever.

The Winged
Surviving can be difficult when you're only a few inches tall. Fanged beasts see you as their prey, every creature is bigger than you, and the world seems to work against small things. Not to mention the struggles of getting from place to place... but the worst of it all? Humans. Once a year, every year, summer sweeps over the forest. The sun warms the leaves and the damp melts away until the world of the Winged flourishes. Those warm months are when survival becomes the hardest. Drawn by the beauty of the forest, humans of all kind invade the already dangerous home of the small Winged people. Fear of these monsters is shared throughout the tribes. One sacred piece of advice is known: avoid humans at all costs. They know only how to destroy and hurt. ___ Despite the protests of her close friend, Azure accepts a mission that takes her from the safety of her tribe. Things begin well despite her trepidation of the approaching summer months. That is, until she falls right into the hands of the very creatures she feared. ___ Completed! Beware of some crappy writing and stupid typos :0 Second part is on my account :) :)Complete
Yours, still.
They weren't supposed to meet like this- on a swing, in a park, between coffee jitters and emotional damage. She wore a hoodie. He wore a smile that forgot things. And somewhere between the jokes, the near-death rescue, and the carved arrow... their story started telling itself again. Not everything was clear. Not every memory returned. But hearts? They tend to recognize each other- even when the brain hasn't caught up yet. And if an arrow appears- carved in wood, buried in stone- you follow it. Even if it leads straight back into the chaos.
