A mysterious stone. A skeletal shaman. A path carved in symbols.

When strange markings appear on a mica-laced stone found by the Shenandoah River, a visionary journey is set in motion. Led by Heartstone—a being both skeletal and radiant—the narrator follows a spiraling path through elemental landscapes, birthing chambers, and the inner architecture of the soul.

As shapes and symbols come alive, they reveal the creature part of our being, the energies of the shadow, and the hidden self that longs to be known. This is not just a story, but a soul-mapping—where vision, myth, and memory interweave.

Beyond the Portal invites seekers, mystics, and lovers of symbolic realms to step into a world where imagination becomes revelation, and every mark on the Stone carries meaning inviting yet more exploration.
