About While We Wait

Tyler Miller had it all. A young man going into his fourth year of college. He carried a high GPA in school, had a beautiful girlfriend whom he intended to ask to be his wife soon, and a bright future ahead of him as an accountant with a large corporation he had interned with in his junior year of college. Until one day when he got a call from his girlfriend's father, telling him that she had ended her own life in her room at home alone. Stricken with grief and lost in depression, Tyler took time to heal himself, taking a week alone to do the only thing that would bring him inner peace before his senior year started: go on a camping trip in the forest. With what positive energy he had left in his soul, Tyler packed his things and traveled to the Kwakwaka trailhead in Canada's Vancouver Island. Once there, he parked his car for the weeklong adventure and traveled up the lonely forest Trail alone. Pushing himself deeper into the island's dark secluded forest. While hiking the trail, Tyler comes across a campsite with a burning campfire and an old Native American Indian sitting by the fire, silent, still, and stoic. Without hesitation, he sits by the campfire with the man and begins to hold conversations with him as if he is drawn to the man by some unseen force. Tyler's experiences in the following days after meeting the man bring him to the brink of madness, as he experiences vivid and horrific hallucinations and delusions from the guardians in the forest. Exposing his own past and the realities of the present until he uncovers the truths about what will happen to his life in the future. Can Tyler overcome the horrors of the guardians in the forest and expose the truths to right the wrongs that have been done in the present day and change his future? Exposing the truth of events that have transpired. Or will he succumb to the guardians and become lost in his own mind forever?
