Though the main characters are kids, some chapters will contain topics that are dark, heavy, taboo, or adult. Check the warnings for what to expect.
Orion liked pretty dresses, four-leaf clovers, and sheep. Anything else had little to no chance of ever catching her attention. She was just the weird, and somewhat slow son of the local butcher.
Cain could have been a good kid. But the attention he didn't get from home, he sought out by causing trouble for the rest of the village. When his family fell apart, no one really had any sympathy left for him.
Childhood memories of growing up in a rural village. Straying off the path of cobblestone, and finding a fellow misfit in the forest.
Bummer Lamb is a chaptered story of Orion's, and Cain's childhoods, from 1805 to 1813. Focus on hurt/comfort, and the intrigue of firsts.
Wysteria is a fictional world, and the characters are figments of imagination. If there's a part of "reality" I find no use for within the story, I may add very convenient in-world solutions.
