The Forgotten Ones

 Epilogue: The Letter

The sun dipped below the horizon, casting long shadows across the quiet streets of Grey Hollow.

Far away, in a distant city, a letter was being written. It was a letter that would find its way into the hands of another curious soul. A journalist, perhaps. Or a traveler. Someone who, like Lena, would venture into the unknown.

The letter was simple, yet chilling in its message:

“Do not go to Grey Hollow. Do not stay. And never ask about the missing.”

It would find its way into the hands of someone who couldn’t resist the pull, someone who would seek out the truth, and in doing so, become another lost soul, another forgotten name in the dark, eternal embrace of Grey Hollow.

The cycle would begin again.
