What begins as an attempt to mend their fractured lives soon twists into a waking nightmare, where grief bleeds into childhood fantasy and ancient rites awaken a dark and eerie devotion to Daudir, the Forgotten God of the Wood.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhen another cruel tragedy strikes, the sisters are left to fend for themselves, learning to live with death as a constant, lurking presence.
