Camping in The Thicket… not exactly a life choice I’d recommend.
It’s the kind of place you only end up in by accident — or bad luck. Once you’re lost here, getting out isn’t just difficult… it’s unpredictable. You can walk for hours, days, even months, and the trees never seem to change.
Thousands of them, stretching forever — but the ground beneath is completely barren. No berries. No animals. No signs of life. And any water you find? You’d better think twice before trusting it.
I’ve heard stories.
People disappearing for years… only to stumble back out hollow, half-starved, or missing pieces of themselves they can’t explain.
I got lucky this time.
Next time… I might not.
There’s something deeply wrong about this place.
