   Bookmarker's Notes

   “ Wirt closes his eyes, casts his mind into his forest. It's dawn; nocturnal animals are retreating to their lairs, diurnal creatures blinking awake, crepuscular ones going about their usual routines. The trees slumber all around him, dreaming slow happy dreams of sunlight and growth. The old grist mill stands at the corner of his awareness, its inhabitants all aslumber. “

   - I love how descriptive and visualizing this paragraph is. love love loveee this series
