Selene

Selene walks through the forest each night carrying a lantern whose light never goes out

Selene moves through the world as though she is following something just out of reach.

Every night, she enters the forest carrying her lantern — not to light the path, but to follow it. The flame inside never flickers, never dims, and never seems to respond to wind, weather, or reason. It simply stays lit, as if it remembers something Selene does not.

She is searching for something she can no longer fully recall.

She only knows it mattered.

Once. Deeply.

Sometimes she stops walking and stands completely still, as if waiting for the forest to tell her where to go next. And sometimes… it does.

Small creatures follow her without explanation. Not in fear, not in caution - but in quiet trust. As if they believe she is carrying something important, even if she herself has forgotten what it is.

Selene does not rush.

She does not panic.

She continues.

Always continues.

Because stopping feels like forgetting something twice
