A dark, philosophically unsettling horror-fantasy about assimilation into an ancient fungal consciousness, blending body horror with existential dread and spiritual transcendence.

In the depths of an ancient forest, something has been growing. Something older than humanity itself, and perhaps greater too. When a park ranger discovers a man and his son living wild, she stumbles onto a secret that is about to change the world.
