Tales Yet Told | Strangers in the Wood 2: Road Trip @talesyettold.com · 15/09/2026

🎉IT'S OUR BIRTHDAY!🎉 We're 5 years old! According to some child development specialists we should be "enjoying complex pretend play, filled with fantasy and drama" and "negotiating what to play with other children." Sounds about right! Say "Happy Birthday" to us or I'll cry.

What are children doing at 5-6 years?
Playing and interacting with others
Even as children get older and start school, play is important. It’s still how children learn and build social, emotional and thinking skills.

Your child:
- Enjoys complex pretend play, filled with fantasy and drama
- Plays with others to achieve a common goal like building a big sandcastle
- Negotiates what to play with other children
- Is becoming more social and prefers to play with friends rather than on their own
- Can share, although they might find it hard to share favourite toys and other things
- Understands why rules are important, but might find games with rules challenging might even accuse other people of cheating sometimes.

Taktak Gwishin (탁탁귀신) When a soldier dies with fear and regret, his corpse rises as an undead whose teeth constantly chatter. It thinks it's still fighting its war, making it dangerous to bystanders. Loud noises remind it of cannon fire and chase it away. #dnd #pf2e

a pale undead corpse wearing armor, skin fixed in a scream as if worn as a mask over the musculature of his face. Arrows are stuck to his back and left leg.
