Selyataği (Flood­plain)

A search par­ty sear­ches for someone lost in a forest, in turn beco­ming lost them­sel­ves within the arbo­re­al zone.

A half-civi­li­an, half-poli­ce force group evacua­tes the vil­la­ge and the forest for con­s­truc­tion, and seek in turn the seekers.

An old tree releases a slum­be­ring spell, over­ta­king ever­yo­ne within its reach.
