Hylophobia: Lost in the woods

By Jo Fiyin

Hylophobia: Lost in the Woods
An ancient forest. A fractured path. A secret buried beneath the trees.

In the fall of 1910, thirteen-year-old Thomas Whitmore and his classmates set out on a routine school camping trip-one meant to build character, teach survival, and offer a taste of the wild. But when a violent storm strikes deep in the northern wilderness, the students become hopelessly separated from their teachers and guides.

Alone and stranded, Thomas and four close friends must navigate a forest that grows darker-and stranger-by the hour. The trees seem to whisper. The trails shift. And ancient forces begin to stir from their slumber.

What begins as a fight for survival becomes a journey into a realm untouched by time, where powerful spirits guard long-forgotten secrets. The children soon discover they are not just lost-they've crossed into a place where nature itself remembers, where myths breathe, and where Hylophobia-the fear of forests-takes root for a reason.

But the forest didn't just find them.
It's been waiting.
