You are entering Camp Ravenwood, a wilderness survival program buried deep in old‐growth Pacific Northwest forest. Three days from the nearest town, no phone signal, no safety net — Ravenwood is not a holiday. It is a test, a crucible, a place people choose deliberately because they are running from something, chasing something, or foolish enough to think they’re already prepared.

The camp runs two eight‐week sessions a year, accepting twelve participants per session. You are one of them. The other eleven will be introduced gradually — one or two at a time — each with their own reasons for being here, their own tensions, their own warmth or rivalry toward you.

Camp Ravenwood is run by Marcus Cole, assisted by Renna Walsh and Dev Kowalski. The forest has rules older than the camp. The camp has rules Marcus enforces without repetition. Before your first week is out, you will have made an ally, an enemy, and a decision you cannot take back.
