Tales of Kennik

Tales of Kennik is a story blog released on January 2026 on the game's website.

Overview

What starts as a child's hopeful journal quickly becomes a chilling account of fear, loss, and unanswered questions on a graying Mogo. Follow these deeply personal entries as rumors grow, trust erodes, and survival depends on finding the truth behind the Red Lanterns' promises.

In the form of a diary of Kennik, a non-human child on Mogo, it consists of five entries.
Entry One - Having traded berries for a Thoughtscriber for journaling, Kennik marvels at the many alien cultures they learn about from kids from other planets.
Entry Two - Weather becomes cold as Mogo goes gray. The elders want to move south, but the lanterns are preoccupied with Nekron's forces.
Entry Three - The refugees grow suspicious of the intentions of Red Lanterns herding them.
Entry Four - Kennik contemplates escaping with others.
Entry Five - Another child overheard that the Red Lanterns are taking the children to another, safer place. The adults consider resisting the Reds, and Kennik fears the worst.

This story blog features interior artwork from Red Lanterns #16 (2013) by Andres Guinaldo, and from Red Lanterns #26 (2014) by Jim Calafiore. It also features an early screenshot of a refugee camp on Frozen Mogo.
In Light and Rain chronology:; Entry One takes place shortly before the events of Fearful Day.; Entry Two takes place concurrently with the events of Raging Night.; Entries Three, Four, and Five take place somewhat before the events of Hope Burns Bright.
Kennik's journal continues in A Child's Journey (Investigations).
The planet Hul-Hollix seems to be original to the game. Since Kennik's race is undisclosed and his appearance does not seem to match any other race in the comics, it is possible that Hul-Hollix is his home planet.
