Ep 18: The Caravan

Traveling onward, the Fowley family wagon became one of many—a caravan made up of a multitude of men, women, and young adults, all chasing the same destination. Murkwood, it would seem, had become quite popular in the years between Vera's youth and adulthood.  

The travelers brought their every worldly possession —plows and tools of the trade, houseware, and livestock—tossed up on wagons or carts or even on the shoulders—anything and everything a person could need or would need to survive. 

If what they were doing was considered "surviving," The gathered people were thin and frail, some injured, others not. Whatever energy was left in them appeared to be used to put one foot in front of the other. Altogether, they made a sorry-looking group.

Dirt-covered and grief-stricken, It came as no surprise how easily the Fowleys mixed into the crowd. Why, if you didn’t know any better, you’d think they, too, had been through hell.

Podcast Summary:

The year is 1874, and no children walk the cobbled streets of Murkwood, Texas. For going on two decades, they had been haunted and stolen into the night. Leaving behind nothing more than the sacrificial remains of their parents. The Sacrifice three. The blood of the Mother, the blood of the Father, and the Child. That is what was needed for them to become something cursed…a Whisper, lost on the wind. And with each loss, the town of Murkwood came closer and closer to the darkness hidden below. The lifeblood slowly draining from the town. Another sacrifice given to the unholy thing that is the Reverent Sun. 

Long-standing between the dark things of the world is the Clan, made up of Foxkeys and Walkers. People with the power to hold back the dark tide itself. They are the final shield standing between the demons of the West and humanity. 

Vera Fowley, once Vera Foxkey, was mother, widow, and homeless. What she most decidedly was not was a witch. Chased by the ghosts of her past from St.Louis into the wild west of Texas, she must face her family's legacy to save her daughter and, more importantly, the world from a whole new existence filled with demons and monsters. 

She must face the secrets of her past to discover the power within.
