The wanderer: a young man in a green hood with an arrow through it and a cape of yew needles

The wanderer, his name is hidden

The wanderer

He walked out of the old yew with Robin’s last arrow through his hood. On this side of the glass he has no name. He is looking for the place where the arrow was meant to land.

The keeper of thresholds: long hair swept back, a moustache and a goatee, a beige jacket over a dark shirt, a lantern with a green light

The keeper

of thresholds · a fan tribute

He stands at the door of his stone house above the sky, the green light of its keyhole in his lantern. Every resident came in through his gate, and he keeps it open. A fan tribute, not affiliated with him or with Robinhood.

Visit the house above the sky →

Meet the waiting host →
MOO, a Holstein cow on a milking stool with a memory stick in her teeth

Thinking Cat, a tabby-and-white cat with a paw under its chin

Thinking Cat

Climb up to the attic →

MUSEBOOK, a muse in a cream fleece hood with a sleeping face, sewing at a table

MUSEBOOK
