A Strange Happening

by TheReddPony
Redd writes an advice column for his local newspaper. He doesn't remember any of his childhood. On a day like most, he gets roped into a chain of events that shatters the life that he knows, and lands him face to face with the SlenderMane.

An account of an incident where Redd, our protagonist, is put through the trials of both discovering his true past, and witnessing the ever present expansion of the everfree forest. It is slowly revealed that a royal hoof is being played in both the expansion of the forest and the strange events surrounding Redd's mental and emotional collapse. And with a string of grisly disappearances and murders sending the town into a panic, our hero, Twilight, and the mythical Slendermane become primary suspects in a plot most fowl, causing the emotional spiral of Redd to quicken. Can Redd discover the truth before it's too late for even himself?
