Exile
In the world outside, survival isn't salvation.
Two years after his family's farm fell, a boy and his hound survive alone in the mountains — foraging, hiding, and carrying the weight of everything that was lost getting out. Then something falls from the sky that shouldn't exist, and the world he's been hiding from comes looking for him.
A story about grief, faith, and what it costs to keep going when the people who taught you how are gone. Written and narrated by Seth Ervin.
Part of Strange Country — speculative fiction from the edge of the familiar. New stories monthly, every one narrated.
