Story Shorts: Moonshade Hollow

Moonshade Hollow

In the quiet town of Lysander's Crossing, when the moon is full and the night is clear, a portal opens to a realm beyond imagination. Moonshade Hollow, a world bathed in perpetual twilight, exists parallel to our own. Here, magical creatures, age-old secrets, and uncharted landscapes converge.

Lyra, a curious librarian, discovers an old, dust-covered book in the archives that hints at the existence of Moonshade Hollow. The pages are filled with fantastical illustrations and cryptic verses, but a page is missing - the one that allegedly contains the way to open the portal.

With the help of a mysterious stranger named Finn, who seems to know more than he lets on, Lyra embarks on a quest to uncover the missing page. But as they delve deeper into the mystery, it becomes apparent that Moonshade Hollow is not just a fairy tale. The shadows of this otherworldly place begin to seep into Lysander's Crossing, and the boundary between the two realms starts to blur.

Strange occurrences plague the town: animals speak in riddles, stars move in unfamiliar patterns, and ghostly apparitions wander the streets. The balance between the worlds is threatened, and only by restoring the missing page can order be restored.

As Lyra and Finn navigate challenges both earthly and ethereal, they uncover truths about Moonshade Hollow and their own destinies. But with every secret revealed, they draw the attention of darker forces determined to keep the realms forever divided.
