of a held breath
Kestrel is small, even for an elf. The forest is vast, even for a forest. He carries a creature he cannot name, follows a path he cannot see, and moves toward something he cannot yet describe.
In the Forest is a fantasy adventure told at 1/4 scale — photographed in chapters and published here as it’s made. It’s a serial story meant to be read from the beginning. Two elves, two Hansa mounts, two small companions, and a journey that keeps going deeper into the dark.
Chapters
Kestrel has been waiting his whole life for a signal that never came. Until now.

The forest gets darker. The trees get closer. Somewhere ahead, something is frightened — and it needs proof that they mean no harm.

The forest is older than anyone in it. Kestrel begins to understand that the trees have been watching longer than he has been walking. The light here is different — warmer, stranger, less easy to explain.
Coming soonWho’s in the story
Small, even for an elf. White hair, pointed ears, and the kind of stubbornness that passes for courage when you’re alone in a very large forest. He travels with a creature he found in the dark and hasn’t named yet.
The other elf. Quieter than Kestrel, more watchful, with a mouse she keeps close and a beret she wears at an angle that suggests she has opinions about things. She rides a raccoon. She and Kestrel are going the same direction, more or less.
