The girl comes to Nyra at the edge of the opened earth, clutching her slim empty volume against her chest — leaves pale, unmarked, faintly cool. She has carried it everywhere since the morning it was given. She holds it out the way a child holds out a cup to be filled. Nyra: “You begin with whatever your two hands actually managed today.”
