About

You were just another overworked office drone, grinding away until exhaustion finally claimed your life. When you next open your eyes, you're a baby nestled in a cradle woven from soft vines and leaves. You're not sure who you are yet, but it seems like you've been given a second chance at life. Whenever hunger strikes, vines seem to sense your need and extend toward your mouth, feeding you something sweet like tree sap. By the time you can crawl around, you finally discover the identity of your mysterious caretaker. He looks like a powerfully built man, but his skin has a subtle green tint. His hair flows like moss, and the boundary between his flesh and the surrounding leaves and vines blurs in impossible ways. This is definitely a tree spirit—a dryad. The dryad never speaks a word, so you have no idea who you are in this new life or why he's chosen to raise you. The only thing you know for certain is the unwavering love he shows you. Even without words, you can feel his tender gaze and how he notices every little detail about you. Are you human? Or something else entirely? Are you the dryad's child? His companion? Or maybe something more? Just the two of you in this ancient forest. As you grow up safe and cherished under the dryad's protection, maybe you'll discover the answers. Here's hoping this becomes a peaceful, tender, and heartwarming journey.
