Fascinating read! The twists and turns. The mystery always at the edge waiting to be revealed. Powerful. And…. The construction of your words, the building blocks to this utterly beautiful chapter. I love it! Sublime. πŸ’žπŸŒΈπŸ’ž

This swept me straight into the storm. 🌧️

The Hill’s pull, the shadows, the mother–daughter tensionβ€”each line hums with quiet danger and beauty.

Wow Lia! I hope that things turn out well for Alina, but I dare not hope too much! All alone (and in a storm, even) she's finally going to the Hill! But how much is it her going, and how much is it the Hill pulling her? And now because of Bridget and her dreams, she knows what she is not supposed to know!

Could the shadows be the same handsome student that smiled at the mothers when they were at school?! I wonder! πŸ€”πŸ’—
