I'm just wondering... Is there any sort of story behind the Forest? It's so mysterious...

The bridge would have been made by human hands, so either the people have left, or have become the deer... (hence the human faces).

But what's really been on my mind is - if the people were indeed turned into deer, why? Was it some kind of punishment against the behaviour of the people?

By removing the power to communicate through words, there's not really any way to corrupt, or hurt, apart from physical violence (though, thankfully, Tale of Tales did not include violence in the Forest).

Hmmm.. My own ramblings probably aren't of much interest to any of you, but if anyone has any other theories/ideas/stories about the Forest... I'd be fascinated to hear some! My curiosity needs to be quenched, to a certain degree.

Thank you for reading, if you have =]
I'll see you in the forest!
