- This
- is
- the
- story
- of
- us
- all
- at
- Sarn,
- of
- Mother
- and
- Gideon
- and
- me,
- and
- Jancis,
- and
- Wizard
- Beguildy,
- and
- the
- two
- or
- three
- other
- folk
- that
- lived
- in
- those
- parts,
- that
- I
- did
- set
- out
- to
- tell.
- There
- were
- but
- a
- few,
- and
- maybe
- always
- will
- be,
- for
- there’s
- a
- discouragement
- about
- the
- place.
- It
- may
- be
- the
- water
- lapping,
- year
- in
- and
- year
- out—everywhere
- you
- look
- and
- listen,
- water;
- or
- the
- big
- trees
- waiting
- and
- considering
- on
- your
- right
- hand
- and
- on
- your
- left;
- or
- the
- unbreathing
- quiet
- of
- the
- place,
- as
- if
- it
- was
- created
- but
- an
- hour
- gone,
- and
- not
- created
- for us.
