The Hunger That Remembers: What the Land Would Not Bury by HungerThatRemembers
Fandoms: The Hunger That Remembers, Original Work, Original Western Fantasy, Original Dark Fantasy, Fiction - Fandom, Fantasy - Fandom
05 Feb 2026
Tags
Summary
This is a dark historical fantasy set in an alternate early-1900s North American frontier during a spiritual catastrophe called the Hungry Line.
The Hungry Line is not a curse or a spell. It is what happens when war, starvation, and fear are allowed to pile up without balance. The dead rise. Spirits turn hostile. The land begins to remember what was done to it.
The story follows Thomas and Maggie O’Connell, siblings of mixed blood caught between colonial war and Indigenous spiritual law. Thomas can see and hear spirits and relive the memories of the dead, but every act of power costs him something—memory, emotion, pieces of himself. Maggie is a mounted officer, grounded and decisive, who survives through choice and responsibility rather than spiritual gifts.
This is not a power fantasy. Characters do not grow stronger without paying for it, and survival often means losing something important. Violence is tragic, not heroic. Spirits are forces with their own rules, not allies or guides.
The story deals with war, colonial violence, mixed identity, spiritual imbalance, and the psychological cost of survival. There is horror, but it comes from people, hunger, and memory.
The land remembers.

Summary
What if Haytham becomes a spirit after his death, watching over his son, the little Connor?
Could he change their fate? Would this child—growing under his watch—still become the Connor he knew?
Time cradles them like an ouroboros, for what is the future returns to the past, and what is the past becomes the future.
Would Connor recognise him? Would he change under his father’s watch? What is Haytham’s gift to Connor?
“May you sail fair to the far fields of fortune,
“With diamonds and pearls at your head and your feet,
“And may you need never to banish misfortune,
“May you find kindness in all that you meet,
“May there always be angels to watch over you,
“To guide you each step of the way,
“To guard you and keep you safe from all harm.”

Summary
There should have been twelve remaining and thirteen dead–each child should’ve claimed at least one kill.
One was all they needed to graduate, after all.
And yet standing in the center of the room was a lone child painted in red, twenty-four bodies scattered around him with a single kunai drenched to the hilt in his hand, scratches and cuts marring his arms and chest.
He was the only child to graduate that year and the only one to do it without a single mark on his back.

The eyes are the windows of the soul, he remembers the popular saying. It's just ironic that his current body got everything right about his soul except for his eyes.

Summary
Frye has a little oopsie and dies. Shiver and Big Man eat her. It only gets stranger from there. Probably the most fucked-up, weird, psychedelic, existential Splatoon fanfiction ever written. It shifts between, like 30 different perspectives, and involves cannibalism, the anima mundi, a world inhabited by gulls 20 million years into the future, the telephone formerly known as Tartar, animal slaughter, albatrosses, black oil covering people's bodies, beating disembodied hearts and a theme of learning to stop asking so many questions and just appreciate life as it happens.
