Notes

  • Dedication: For my brother Volker

  • Epigraph:

    I write this for the generations of Maelir to come so that they may learn of the great Mountain which is the axis of the universe, its spirit the heart of the world. And as with any heart, when it is broken it cries in pain for what has been lost, and when it is mended it cries in joy for what has been regained.
