A village guarded by lantern-light. A forest that wakes when the flames go out. And a young keeper who discovers the night was never her enemy.
When the oldest lantern in Brindlewood refuses to ignite, Lira - the youngest Lantern Keeper in a century - is pulled into the heart of the forest where ancient magic stirs. There she meets a creature woven from smoke and moonlight, a being who reveals the forgotten truth behind the lanterns and the balance they were meant to protect.
A gentle, luminous short story about courage, connection, and learning to walk beside the darkness instead of fearing it.
