I left something behind again. A little more of me, I think.

I wasn’t sure I was going to count this one. It’s quiet. A little too soft around the edges. The kind of letter you only write when you’re not sure anyone’s listening. Orren Alderfall showed up like that. A weathered sort of bear. Kind eyes. Heavy shoulders. The kind of creature who’s been holding his… Continue reading I left something behind again.

 I don’t remember joining the Order, but the velvet shadows do. The trees remember. (Do you?) This is Letter #9 of Filed and Left Behind, left near a coffee station for someone who might need instructions they didn’t know they were waiting for. The message is simple: Don’t speak. Touch moss.
