Nita’s far forest
Welcome to Nita’s Far Forest, home to many creatures big and small, who Nita now calls her friends.
Once a lonely white crow in a flock that never truly saw her, Nita longed for real friendship—someone who would love her for her kind heart, brave spirit, and wish to help. One day, chasing the wind and her own quiet hopes, she flew farther than ever before… and stumbled upon a hidden portal, quietly pulsing in the hollow of an ancient oak.
Drawn through that mysterious doorway, Nita found herself in the Far Forest—a land where every creature had once arrived from somewhere else. What brought them there? And why did it feel like the forest had been waiting… just for her?
Chapter 2 Preview: Nita meets the GirlBugs
As Nita approached she came upon two distinct houses and a huge garden that surrounded them. What caught her eye the most was a very large daisy and odd shaped looking houses that she could swear looked like upside down flowers.
As she got closer, she could see the houses were actually in the shape of a bell flower and a lily. These two talkative girlbugs were drinking tea at a garden table. One was very tall and the other very small. She loved their fashionable outfits that were very bright, multi-colored and stylish.
The girlbugs managed to keep talking without taking a breath, and cris-crossed their conversations on different subjects – Nita had seen this hectic communication style before in her flock, but not at this level of speed and understanding.
