Just a speculation but I think he has went into the world of elves. Its not like the elves that been portrait in the fantasy but in my word its called "bunian". These creatures are considered supernatural and in Islam you must believe in supernatural things to complete your faith. But our religion prohibit and forbid us to dwell into supernatural things because their laws of physics, science and math are very different than us. Thats why there are some cases that people walk into the middle of the jungle and have set foot into their territory or should I say their town or cities because they have houses and stuff like some town but invisible and cant been and detected by our five senses, and they end up or teleported miles away or hundred miles away from the starting point because they been played by 'bunian'. Some even end up in their world and married to the female and have families with a few pacts or agreements. One story that I heard that really stuck in my head is there two children like 6 and 7 years old playing by at palm oil plantation near his village. When the sun goes down they decided to go home and when one of them reach home, the other one went missing. The father issued this missing to the villagers and they went searching for the kid at the night. Tomorrow morning they reported the police and the act continues with no result. Untill after 3 days after that at the exact moment when the sun goes down the kid was saw walking toward his home with his body being clawed in his chest,arms,legs and everywhere was blood. His clothes were torn and the kid pass away after seeing his parents.

Oke, i found some insight on the pics and little Ryker. The people that found him said he was very very scared. Which is pretty understandable because of the dangerous wildlife and the thunderstorm. Temperatures dropped all the wag down to the 40s, not to mention that Ryker was in a onesie for those 3/2 days. The reason he looks that way in the photo is from surviving all of those awful elements, and the fact that the boy was starving and was dehydrated. It is odd, however, that his parents waited 2 hours before calling the police/search and rescue. One of the people that found him said, “He had that wide eye’d scared look until he got back with his mom and dad.” Aye also, Ryker is fine today and is happy and healthy :). I looked this story up because i just wanted to get some proper closure on this lil guy. Also the boy in the pic is the same kid, for the people saying it isnt him

There is a video of Ryker saying what happened and he said he saw a house in the woods and someone lived in the house. It's also odd that he was found in different clothes that he wore two days before, now I personally find this case absurd because if he was found in a family's shed how could he be in different clothes? Well also how could a toddler get in a shed? Somehow the family had a child that was similar to Ryker that had the clothes size. But why would there be clothes in a Shed? This is a horrifying case and hopefully no one will ever experience the things Ryker did.

This is shockingly similar to something that happened to me as a kid.

Search and rescue, the FBI, the local and state police, and half of my entire goddamn town showed up to try and find me. Luckily, the guy who found me went against police orders to search in an area people were told to stay away from. I was passed out and extremely hypothermic in a bramble bush, so I definitely would've died if he hadn't found me. *Edit: I changed the time frame from 2 days to 26 hours because I went back to check some of the old news articles and realized I remembered it wrong lmao
