The Ferry, The Dog & The Fading Folk
Jules is on a ferry. There she meets an old man and his dog. The three set out to climb a hill together and everything is fine until a storm takes them down a whole other journey.
What starts as a day trip to the Isle of Arran spirals into a chaotic odyssey through grief, lust and lore - navigating a giant with a taste for salted grief / faeries who dance you through the night / and shadows of old stories that lure you in with their song.
This is not a story about healing; it’s about running away into chaos, seeking the ones we’ve lost, losing yourself in the process.
And finding out that it’s not about that / that you’re not that lost anyway / that you were just being a bit dramatic / that it’s okay to be the person who’s left / that even though it looks good and feels good, it still might want to eat you.
And choosing not to die-
Wait, no.
To live.
