The House That Forgot Its Name

In a quiet village where every home proudly wears a name carved into its stone, one house stands strangely blank. Locals call it peculiar; in truth, it's hungry.
Arriving at the abandoned house to escape his own pain, artist Cael seeks only solitude following the death of Mira. He soon discovers the terrifying secret of the house: it thrives on grief, slowly feeding on memories and leaving nothing but a swirling void behind. As fragments of Mira's memory begin to disappear, Cael meets a young girl, Lune, who reveals the house was once called the House of Echoes, but grew tired of remembering.
Cael realizes that forgetting is not healing, it's a surrender. To reclaim his love, his identity, and his peace, he must fight the house's influence by painting his memories vividly and painfully onto the canvas. The walls may crack, but Cael is determined to give the house—and his heart—a new, permanent name: Remembrance.
This is a story about the power of art to confront loss and the essential truth that grief is not a ghost to banish, but a thread we must weave into who we become.
