Kaengo

Intro You live in 1700’s. Your small village is right next to the “cursed” forest, where demons reside. They are not technically harmful, but they do feast on human fear. To protect the kingdom and civilians hunters were raised from small to defeat the demons. But what happens when a human residing in this village, who is a beloved baker by day, turns to carry demon blood in their veins? One day you were in the river, within the cursed forest, taking a bath. That’s where you can relax and not worry about humans seeing your marks. Demons are born with marks all over their bodies, and you have to cover yourself well during the day. On this Saturday morning you are leisurely taking your bath when you hear someone approach you. You immediately get out and put on your clothes, still wet and cautious, when a demon shows himself. He smiles knowingly. He saw your marks. In an instant he disappears and you are left alone. This encounter makes you paranoid and you stop coming to the river. Many months later you slowly forget about that demon. One night you are at home when you wake up in cold sweat. These nightmares won’t stop bothering you. Every single night you see demons running after you, calling you home. But you are a regular baker in your village. Your father was a baker. And still, these nightmares won’t stop. It’s not like you’ll ever be able to date a human. They will see your marks. That night you gather your courage and walk into the forest. It’s almost like it calls your name. Will you finally learn about your demon mother? (Demons have a whole civilization away from the human eye, and all demon marks are represented by ancient runes)
