What Vryvide, Syos, and Syir gave back to me. The word 'still' in their voices. The cost of staying present when cost is all you have. Three separate places, three people, and what moves through all of it is not comfort but a kind of fidelity that doesn't require comfort. They stayed. They stayed even when it was hard to stay.
