It is a relief to be home, yet it is strange also after being
absent. Nathan kept up the place in his diligent manner, and he and Mirtai no
longer seem at odds. The extent to which that has been reversed, I do not know
and have no intention to inquire.
Winter reigns and it snowed last night. The garden is still and
dormant. I see my breath when walking out of doors, and feel the sting of warming
skin when returning to the shelter inside. A fire dances in the hearth. Yet my body
is chilled, and not from the cold here.
