Summary
Into the forest, you may go Where birds sing, where trees grow Into the forest, you may go Where stag bleats, where echoes flow May you never lose the way Lest you will never get away Into the forest, you may go Royβs life was perfect. It was absolutely perfectβ¦ Until he lost everything. Bitter and resentful, the man hopes to escape the claws of the past by accepting a job offer at Little Ridge Camp in the local natural park. However, the forest is just as unforgiving as the world outside. The ancient canopy of trees bears as many secrets, as it bears bones of those who wandered too far. The whispers of insanity echo along the slopes, grazing the ears of those willing to listen. Can you hear them? Embark on a journey soaked with blood and tears. Will Roy uncover the phantoms of the Little Ridge Camp before he becomes one himself? Be aware gentle readerβ¦ If you gaze into the voidβ¦ Let it be known it stares back.
