Anya Mercier must escort a party of travelers through a cursed forest filled with magically mutated monsters and mind-altering mushroom spores. Anya has little to rely on other than her wits and the loyalty of her companions, and the cursed forest could rob her of both.

All feedback welcome! 🤗
The dreams that once consoled wall-flower Selene have mutated into blood drenched nightmares. Now she must seek the guidance of her coven and forgive the man that betrayed her—or be swallowed alive in the dark.

Spain, 1924, new dictatorship. A dancer with ruined legs. A manipulative goddess. Secret police closing in. Lovers plotting betrayal. Ancient Celtiberian gods returning to claim Spain with blood. Stopping them means giving up every dream she’s ever had. #A #F #Hist #Q #FIFRevpit #Mockpit
