A school-bus gets sucked into a dark forest.

Deadly monsters lurk around every corner. They look almost human, but they are anything but.

Humanity struggles for survival.

What dangers and secrets await our stranded protagonists?

Chapters are posted daily.

Warnings:

This is a slow-burn story, answers and explanations aren't given right away.

The setting is grim-dark. And our protagonists are as human as they can get.

No superpowers. No easy trips. Heroes must earn their glory. Villains must earn their strength.

There are 4 main characters around which the story orbits, each having their own narrative and perspective to the setting/events.

AN:

For anyone interested in reading ahead, I post the chapters 2-4 weeks in advance over at my Patreon.
