Fairy tales and folklore, the fictional stories told to children at bedtime, and the scary stories told around campfires. These stories have been passed down for generations, but they aren’t the product of the imagination. They are the retelling of actual events and unlike the stories they evolved into, they didn’t all end in a happily ever after. Some loss is so brutal, so violent that it rips the soul in half, the parts destined to wander the ages searching for that which was taken. Sometimes the universe works to bring those parts together again. In those rare instances, an opposing force is also triggered, one determined to keep those halves divided.
