forest news, sky updates
I was always immortal. Turning keeps me stuck on earth in my current form. All of my great grandchildren and their babies gather around every Christmas in my grand house, their voices echoing through the forest, sledding off the roof and building snow forts. I laugh and forget how I ache to move on.
Being turned is not so bad, once you adjust. The first century is excruciating; mind still racing with fleeting mortal urgency. But when you learn to relax into the long slow breath of the cosmos, the anxiety settles. What do you choose to do with this gift of time?

I am rather fond of the idea of having a tea party at midnight. Gilded invitations in mysterious swirly script, tables laden in a hushed garden, perhaps among dewy flowers, perhaps in a field of white snow, watched by the mischievous moon.
Would you go?

Lest anyone tell you otherwise, you can have a tea party at 9:30 p.m.

This is a very popular sledding hill after a snowfall in the Adirondack foothills.

I’ll take you to Havnor and say to the princes of Earthsea, “Look! In the place of darkness I found the light, her spirit. By her an old evil was brought to nothing. By her I was brought out of the grave. By her the broken was made whole, and where there was hatred there will be peace.”

The witch tries to remember what kind of enchantment she added to the rosemary when the wizard, lifts up the couch above his head while looking for her ball of yarn. Large muscles protrude through his robe.
Pheww, she mumbles to herself, staring at him all intrigued, things could be so much worse.

The witch, in the middle of forming large musical bubbles out of suds while doing the dishes by hand, rolls her eyes.
The wizard casts a magic spell and all the trash cans in the tower are suddenly empty. Outside, a trash can fills up with all the week's trash.

In a bright red wig the witch keeps raising her hand and asking questions. The wizard politely offers to demonstrate why her suggestions wouldn't work. The dancing lights turn red and sparkle. The wizard puts his glasses on to look closer at the red haired student but she is already gone.
The wizard is teaching a cantrip class at the library. They are learning dancing lights today. It seems to be going okay.
