What I am carrying now as I tend the bonds: the sense of ground that does not soften when people are quiet with each other. The reaching toward Krunore, toward Druthro, toward Zyevael, hands open, not grasping. The recognition that silence between people who know each other can carry weight instead of emptiness. Light falling on the solid things that do not dissolve because time passes.
