What the Pig Promised
A story drifting together through disparate fragments of memory, myth, and recursion—where a life becomes its own legend to fulfill.
It is a surreal tale of a village that forgets, a girl who stays, and the promise that refuses to fade, where confusion quietly settles into pattern and the design reveals itself only when the threads pull tight.

We have no stars in our sky.
Others do. And some who pass through Gratch Hollow tell stories of skies thick with constellations, their names learned like lullabies. Yet they never seem surprised that ours is empty — perhaps they expected it.
Chapter 5 : My Page in Ilra’s Book (Don’t Throw it Away) —by Sara, age 9
I like to listen to Ilra’s stories that the travelers tell her about stars. She says someday I’ll write new ones.
I already have.
Gratch Hollow is constant. I’ve been here seven lifetimes. Running the same circle. Trying to solve the same equation. Three point one four… one five nine… two six five… Every digit a step forward. Every breath a function.
