You take a left on your walk home that you’re sure wasn’t there before. The road wavers before you and out the corner of your eye you think you see twisting roots. Shadows that have too much form. The wind carries a whisper, Welcome home. You try to turn around and head back, but the road keeps shifting. The more you try to get away, the sicker you feel, with roots climbing up your ankles like chains.
And then you see it. The small town that is nowhere and everywhere all at once. No one chooses to come here, but once the town has you, there is no doubt that you are in a prison. It calls to you, lures you in and keeps you close. It’s the promise of a home, but you are only a guest in here.
Most inhabitants aren’t sure how long they’ve truly been in here, but they try to build some semblance of life in this dangerous little town. The veil between worlds is thinner here and unknown creatures whisper secrets in the woods while the Blood Tree watches over the townsfolk, roots digging in deeper and deeper.
Welcome to Ashbourne, a home, a prison, a place shrouded in mystery, and whatever you do, don’t go into the woods. Don’t go into the woods.
