Do you feel as though your heart and your gut and mind are in tune with it, when you are there? That your blood beats in time to its movements?

That is the nature of my home. And magic is part of it - a part that can't be removed. I have been here for nearly a year, lady, here against my will with people who would choose to make me something I'm not. If I'm to be here, I could at least be whole.
