The Hollow and the Boy

In the half-forgotten town of Vyre, a boy claims his brother vanished near the trench beyond the farms. Tavish—a scarred fighter who stays only out of habit—follows the boy, along with a ragtag group and a dog that needs no master.

They find more than ruins. They find a wound, a spiral-cut shaft, and something waiting below. What they face isn’t just a threat—it’s a lock, and the boy may be its key.

This is Part 1 of a mythic descent. A tale of silence, memory, and the roots beneath forgotten altars. More will come. But this one stands.
