They nodded at her respectful response to Miss Maea's passing. They'd made their lantern, they'd honored her soul as best they knew how. She'd want them to live in the present. "We officially record ...

"Oh, Miss Maea was born in the Hollowed Ground, like me. But she spent a lot of time here. And, she's... um, well, she's gone now." They cleared their throat. "But she taught me a lot about Torchline ...

Their eyebrows quirked. "I never thought of it like that. It's just... we miss the departed. Miss Maea was my friend and she was friends with so many, and we all miss seeing her here, with us. Maybe i...

They considered that. "What I'm most curious about is what happened to Miss Maea. Before this, I would have thought I had a good grasp on death and memory, having grown up in the Hollowed Ground, but ...

Ever since Miss Maea had given them the large conch shell to give to Freina, their sister had become fond of seashells. She wanted to visit Torchline, some day. "When I'm not busy." Whenever that woul...
