Inspiration
"Every letter is someone else's important thoughts; there are no letters that don't have to be delivered. This is a passage in the animation Violet Evergarden that I like. This sentence also inspired me. "Letter" is also a symbol of emotion between people. Even death cannot stop the transmission of emotion. Has the joy or sadness in the letter been conveyed?
Story
A wooden toy abandoned in a forest package, the emotions in the letter turned into butterflies and endowed the wooden man with a soul and mission. As a postman, he returned these new documents to the recipient. But this package has been forgotten for a long time, and the recipient is no longer alive. The wooden man went to look for the guide, an undead deer that shuttles between death and the world. In the end, the wooden man found their souls under the leadership of the undead deer and completed his mission.
