About this listen

 A surreal audio drama about a village caught in a loop it can't remember, a sky without stars, and the strange lives drawn into its orbit. In Gratch Hollow, a dying stranger wakes to the same violent moment again and again. A pig-man named Jon, hulking and powerful, offers comfort to those who need it. The seamstress tells stories of constellations no one has seen. And a young girl named Sara studies equations that could rewire all of time. Many of their truths never happened.

    A Letter from Mareen to Her Late Husband
    Dec 17 2025

    Fourteen years after his death, Mareen visits Richard's grave to tell him more about Sara, the girl who became her daughter. About Sara's curiosity. Her cats. Her math. The way she sees things.

    But lately, something has changed. And Mareen isn't sure what it means.

    A companion to Episode 2.

    Episode 2 — The Unbalanced Equation (Not all lost are found, but all found know loss)
    Nov 23 2025

    A loose page in a book about constellations—though no one here has ever seen one—hand-printed by a local living legend: the girl who stayed.

    A Stranger waking to an axe to the skull again—no answers, but he might be falling in love... or something like it.

    A constellation tale of seven vengeful children who mock a fallen warrior forever.

    A pig-man waiting with blankets and food, just in case someone needs comfort like he did.

    A young widow opening her door to a child with no past.

    And Sara beginning to write herself into the sky.

  • Episode 1.1 – The Moment

    Episode 1.1 – The Moment
    Nov 21 2025

    An audio restoration of a surviving fragment from the pre-divergence era: one of Ilra Wint’s stitched chronicles, rescued from a fragile and ancient page.

    This entry, simply titled The Moment, records the earliest known account of the event that shaped Gratch Hollow’s fate — as preserved, interpreted, and catalogued long after Ilra’s time.

    Not required listening before Episode 2, but intended to deepen your understanding of what Ilra believed was worth writing down.
