Consent & Ethics

Why this page exists

Stories and audio can stir the body, mind, and spirit. To keep The Hollow safe, these are the principles guiding all of Hush of the Raven’s work.

Core values

• Enthusiastic yes: Desire is sacred. Anything less than a clear yes is a no.
• Ongoing: Consent is not permanent—it must be present every step.
• Fiction ≠ advice: Stories are art, not prescriptions.
• 18+ only: No minors, ever.
• No hate: No racism, no queerphobia, no ableism.

Aftercare

Even stories deserve aftercare.

• Pause if your nervous system says stop.
• Ground yourself in breath, water, movement.
• Come back only if/when you want to.

Content boundaries

The Hollow does not include:

• Real non-consensual acts
• Minors in any form
• Incest
• Bestiality
• Hate speech

Some stories may explore dark desire through consensual roleplay, but the consent remains explicit.

Respect for readers

• I tag for intensity and major themes.
• If you need specific content notes, ask—I will update when possible.
• Your safety is yours to choose.
