LOGAN is an invitation to look at your own life and reflect on all you have been through.

You will travel the world, using your memories to find solutions to problems that the Hidden Folk face in the aftermath of the destructive expansion of the Shadow Realm while thinking of potential long-term solutions to stopping the Shadow Realm from bleeding completely into the World of the Hidden Folk
