Oh this is very exciting. Short and sweet. I’ve only just learned about bookmark RPGs and this is a really evocative example; I love how each table option so clearly bloomed a different story in my mind’s eye – and then of course the penny-drop at the end is clever and heartwrenching all at once.

You’ve nailed the essence of these stories – an single terribly impactful decision, and then the experience of watching how the out-of-place grows up where they Do Not Belong. Thank you for submitting it!
