Mythpunk [Mythpunk] [Modern Folktale] [Demo] [NaNoRenO 2015]

#1 Post by facadepapergirl » Mon Mar 02, 2015 1:44 am

Her mother was dead, she lived with her stepmother and stepsisters, her father was away on a business trip - can you see where this is going? Vasilisa didn't. When the power went out, she did as her stepmother asked, stumbling through the pre-dawn darkness towards that strange neighbor's house on stilts. The ugly old lady inside, calling herself "Baba Yaga", didn't give Vas much of a chance before she was falling through a rabbit hole.

In the dark and strange world that is Wunderlan, Vas is forced to piece together the stories of its even stranger and darker denizens if she ever wants to get home. With only the wooden marionette her mother had given her, and Baba Yaga's three horsemen to help her, Vas doesn't know if she can figure out what's going on before it's too late. It's not a question of if she will ever get home - she doesn't know if she'll even make it out alive!

In the true mythpunk fashion, the stories of Pinocchio, The Valiant Little Tailor, The Little Match Girl, Ivan and the Firebird, and many more interweave and intersect in this modern retelling. Expect dark, expect intricate story weaving, and expect to learn how liars and thieves are punished.
