In the forest dreamscape, the second stage of grief begins to manifest through a fractured, surreal wilderness haunted by twisted versions of Vee’s childhood toys. Each creature is a reflection of a once innocent memory, now corrupted by emotional turmoil. 

​

There are three core toys, each with two distinct forms: the comforting Good version seen in Vee’s real-world bedroom, and the distorted Dark version encountered in the dream forest. This visual duality represents Vee’s fractured mind.  How grief rewrites once familiar things into something frightening or unpredictable.
