The stone balancer's Literatures
Tfw you find a piece of writing you don't even remember making. This is about when stone first entered The Endless Forest.
A story taken from an RP between stone and Rune in 2015. Not strictly canon to have happened to stone, but a distinct possibility of the experiences which have shaped the innate fear of tigers held by his subspecies.
Stone heralds from Keibul Lamjao National Park on Loktak Lake in Manipur, India; the park's name literally translates to "the vast land where tigers gather" (Kei - tiger, Bul - vast, Lamjao - large land).
