Plot
In the outskirts of a white palace lies a forest banished from the realm of the gods.
Despite the Forsaken Forest's infamous reputation, it still gets visitors from other kingdoms.
Many of these humans have a fifty-fifty chance of surviving the the maze of the forest depending
on the mood of the Forest Guardian, Loke.
However, one day, the exact day when the forest holds a Harvest Festival,
a gunshot is fired and three humans enter the forest. Unlike the forest’s usual visitors,
getting three in a row is rather unlucky on the day of the Harvest Festival.
Warned by the Forest Elder, one of the three intruders will bring destruction into Loke’s forest, but who is it?
Just what will happen when Loke does meet one of them, will it be their deaths or Loke’s?

Main Characters
From Left to Right: Frea, Loke, Sign, Hiem
The story isn't related to any Norse myths.
Though the plot has nothing to do with Norse mythology,
the names are influenced from the Norse Gods names.
Loke is based off Loki's powers and trickster character.
Frea is Freyja, the Norse Goddess.
Sign is from Sigyn, the wife of Loki.
Hiem is Jötunheimr.
Sorry for any misunderstandings!
And designs are subject to change at any point this year.[/i]
Loke
The androgynous Guardian of the Forest.
Enjoys tricking humans and is generally apathetic towards human affairs, unless it involves the forest.
Has powers unknown to humans, as well as a strong emotional connection with the forest.
Loke is very possessive of the forest, naming every tree trunk on the acre.
Loke is also one of the reasons humans come back to the forest. There is a rumor that Loke is a
fairy that can grant wishes with a fountain located in the center of the forest.
Loke is agender, showing a detachment to humanity despite looking like one.
Frea
First of the three humans who enters the forest.
A deluded, happy-go-lucky princess who seems to have lost her way
and claims to be looking for a knight.
She's a terrible singer and surprisingly has callused hands despite her docile appearance.
Sign
A young man who claims to be the King of Thieves, but has lost his treasure, the princess.
Arrogant with his self-proclaimed title but his skills are the real thing.
His bag is full of mysteries and seems to be of Asian descent.
Hiem
The Loyal Knight who is searching for a princess and a thief, presumably together.
Incredibly determined to retrieve the princess and refuses to disclose any information.
Actually entomophobic and can not live without his armor.
Forest Elder
A mystic member of the forest guardians.
Is known to predict accurate prophecies and another reason why humans visit the forest.
Loke does not know the seer's true appearance but treats the elder like family, particularly a grandfather.
Spirit Flies
Souls of the dead shaped like fireflies.
They are the messengers of the forest and can shape themselves as a flat screen TV.
According to Loke, they taste like ambrosia.

Notes
Originally this was suppose to be for NaNoWinter 2015 but I didn't want to release a game that had a rushed and messy story, so I decided to push it back a bit.
However, it is going to be a short story...
And here's the definitions of my title and protagonist's name. It's kinda spoiler-ish.
n. 1.A private path or road; also, the wicket or hatch of a door.
Lok (lǒk)
n. 1.(Scandinavian Myth.) The evil deity, the author of all calamities and mischief, answering to the Ahriman of the Persians.
