The Story So Far

So what is Brushfire about?

Wave 1

Release Date: July 4th, 2022

You have to memorize the Mission Statement: “Brushfire exists to reveal and respect the truths of the universe, and to protect and provide for all of its inhabitants.”

Brushfire is an advanced society of wildlife who live in the Burrow, a sprawling subterranean city built deep under Faribault’s Central Park.

Squirrels Bay and Elle are a part of FLARE: Fair Leaders in Action, Relief, and Exploration. The members of FLARE are the best of what Brushfire represents, and are respected and admired throughout the community for their work, their honesty, and their bravery.

Forty months ago, a group of elite scientists called the Ekpyrotic Ensemble were lost overnight while trying to tap into a vast source of mysterious power. In the present, a strange visitor lights a spark under FLARE to revisit the tragic event, as some of them discover there was more to that power than even they knew.


Wave 2

Release Date: July 4th, 2023

Brushfire exists to reveal and respect the truths of the universe, and to protect and provide for all of its inhabitants.”

The mission statement may be too much for any one animal to live up to.

Brushfire is an advanced society of wildlife who live in the Burrow, a sprawling subterranean city built deep under Faribault’s Central Park.

Squirrels Bay and Elle, along with Elle’s brothers Dur and Donnie and new mouse recruit Erwin, are members of FLARE: Fair Leaders in Action, Relief, and Exploration. To be a part of FLARE is to be the best of what Brushfire represents, and they are respected and admired throughout the community for their work, their honesty, and their bravery.

In Wave 1, we were introduced to a group of elite scientists called the Ekpyrotic Ensemble, who were lost overnight while trying to tap into a vast source of mysterious power. In the present, a strange visitor lit a spark under the FLARE team to revisit that tragic event, as they discovered there was more to that power than even they knew: the energy may come from another universe, called the Flip Side by the Ensemble.

In Wave 2, FLARE visits River Bend, a forest community on the edge of town, to ask their leader Estelle for permission to take a power source that could reopen the doorway to the Flip Side and possibly bring the Ekpyrotic Ensemble home.

The complicated and fractured relationship between the two communities, however, may not be so easily repaired.
