After some time I decided to take an old script from the drawer and ressurect it, to transform it into an interactive tale. This will combine a comic book with the interactivity of the internet. Thus, once finished the tale will be available on the net, floating in the digital form.
Old Man Willow tells the story of a murderer who, being chased after, hides in a cave. The story takes shape when the murderer encounters creatures living in the cave. We cannot tell what had happened to the protagonist until it is told by the characters whom the murderer meets in the cave.
The story loosely alludes to an English fairy tale The Children in the Wood. In it the murderer has two children killed because of the inheritance he is likely to get after their death. In the story we observe how the creatures from the cave describe the children before their death (like Sheepdog) or relate to them (like Amanita), making the killer aware of different perspectives of the deed he has done.
I will put more updates regarding the project once we have a nice storyboard.
