“When the Moon Wept and the Grove Awoke” – An Illustrated Creation – Myth & Lore Book of the Shadowed Grove

Description

📖 WHEN THE MOON WEPT AND THE GROVE AWOKE
An Epic Creation Myth & World Guide of Shadowed Grove

This is the foundational story of the Shadowed Grove — a fully illustrated, full-colour digital book that tells how the Grove was born, how its realms formed, and how seasons, guardians, and rituals came to be.

Told by Motherlore, the first Lorekeeper, this book weaves myth, seasonal knowledge, and symbolic truth into a single narrative — revealing:

• how seasons interact and overlap
• how guardians and inhabitants move through light and shadow
• how festivals and celestial moments shape the world
• how ritual, remembrance, and story became woven into the land

This book is both a mythic narrative and a foundational guide to the Shadowed Grove world.
