Our Place in the Cosmos

A whimsical illustration of two anthropomorphic fox characters stargazing at night. One fox adult stands beside a telescope while a young fox looks through it, pointed towards the starry sky and a galaxy in the background. A campsite with a green tent and a campfire with two other foxes is visible in the foreground, set against a mountainous landscape.

Night’s quieter out here, kid. The desert listens and you can hear the universe. More stars come out than you’ve ever seen, going on forever. All those dots and feels like we’re just one of them. But take a closer look. That one dot’s really a thousand more, each a different colorful character. We’re all more than a mere speck in space. Every bit unique and we get to be a part of it.

A Good Place to Call Home

On a secluded lake, a wolf takes a well earned rest after a tiring day. Building a home will be a tremendous undertaking. The reward of this majestic view will be well worth it. In the placid lake, he sees his future reflecting back—all the stories yet to be discovered. This place has chosen him as much as he has chosen it.

Found Siblings (Longing for a Friend)

Selene is forlorn. She wistfully daydreams of a life filled with laughter and adventure. She has the things, but that doesn’t feel important. Jasper watches from the cold outdoors oblivious to his own illicit behavior. The warmth looks fun and intoxicating. The rocking moose sees them both longing for what they don’t have. And all of that is about to change.
