And so the question is put to The Reader: regardless of where we stand… inked upon a page or outside of it evaluating the merit of its opening line; are we not all characters bound? Instantly, an answer purses your lips without a single syllable hinted. Though many have proposed such an assertion to be the very essence of The Quest― far more nibbles your contemplation.
This is the trickle proving loftier boughs hang above. Treading beyond trepidation, you’ve stagger outwards, weighing profoundly, upon this Tip of Nebear― thus granting credence that you may, indeed, be The One so sought. Do you interpret the incline― see the step; the stair; the bridge― this rainbow? Let thoughts breathe freely; follow their fluttering into unfamiliar tale winds of scrutiny. Avoid seeking solutions for questions ever-change.
Every supposed end will soon fray with harmony and every harmony presents us new chords. There is only one, ultimate, verdict. You know it for, as the rising of the sun, ever is it so. Like crisp bread dabbed in warm, thick gravy; the real question softens, even a most, hereditary resolve: does one plot impede upon the other? Do all rings intertwine or is it possible to be held an eclipsed world apart?
While suns wake and stretch, christening worlds with the crystallized enthusiasm of dew― a fragile tang of significance falls laden to your tongue. More than stairs― a pinnacle― is reached; for now you see the delicate interlace balancing bliss and woe; love and hate; hope and despair. Lucid amongst such complexities of tears, a single inevitability finds composure; remaining constant and that, is the question: what next?
And now, all being ever said; let inscription be assessed no greater than the tale for within the tale turn many pages and upon one of these― I lie. Let rabbit holes be fathomed by depth and dire darkness. Let freedom and gratitude run as lions to roam. Let autumn leaves reign in ribbons of willow to color the earth in fresh tapestries sown.
