A Song For Nightfall
The Wandering of Umbra
On the border of the Ameyalli Forest is an ancient tribe. They have long survived on their ancient rituals, worship of Mother Earth, and strict adherence to the forbidden.
Lia and Kai are siblings who have long dreamed of entering the forbidden forest during the allure of nightfall. Night after night, they gaze longingly at the dancing lights above it and the warm glow of purple coming from within.
When Lia finally breaks away from the village’s heavy hand, her dream is fulfilled. But at great cost:
The tribe’s dark history comes to light, Mother Earth’s true nature is brought into doubt, and the Ameyalli tribe learns that nothing is ever forbidden without reason.
