Through the Forest

Author: Yijing Li

Lost and alone, a young boy enters the forest not knowing the path that lies before him. He meets a figure called Emptiness who guides him on his way. Together they find keepsakes deep in the forest that trigger memories, both good and bad.

A powerful and moving tale about the importance of memories in the winding journey of life.
