From Within the Woods

The woods do not scare Elena-even if they did have a reputation for being cursed. At least, that was the bravery she had when her father was still alive. Now, accused of being a witch by the village that she once held dear, Elena realizes that going into the woods clouded with superstition may be her only chance at survival. However, once she steps foot past the threshold of the forest, she wonders if perhaps her village had been right about the dangers that lurk within. With what has been taken from her, she is left to hope that her promise to be brave is enough to help her survive.

As clouds darkened the sky and prepared to cleanse the earth with rain, Dmitri could feel something different about the forest. He felt the subtle shift in the trees - a sense of urgency that he had never felt before. He could feel it inside of his chest, like a bird stirring against his ribcage. Helplessly drawn to the source, Dmitri found himself moving as if it had called to him. All he knew was that, as soon as he crossed paths with whatever it was, his life would never be the same.
