Thus my progress was slow, for its roads were myriad and winding, lost in the shadows of the woodland. Many times, I suspected I had crossed my own path, looped over my course and utterly lost my way amongst the shades, for the landscape is an obscure place, prone to mists and fogs which, sheltered from the sun, cling as wraiths about the tree trunks. Perpetual twilight hangs uneasily amongst th...
