Episode notes

Chamomile and blackberry ride the autumn wind, but the air between two people carries something sharper.

Some truths survive burial. They wait in the bones, patient as stone, until someone who remembers you — really remembers — refuses to let you look away. This is a chapter about the cost of hiding what you are, and what it takes to stop.

—

Narrated by Rebecca Hasler.

Set in D.W. Sheppard’s vast interconnected world where protective Gates hold back deadly monsters and treacherous flora, where safety is never guaranteed.
