'The tide remembers what the moon forgets,' your mother said, pressing an amber bead into your palm. After she vanished beneath the wave-wrack, you began to understand. You have walked the seafloor since before the oldest cairn fell to silt. The moon is your clock, the tide your ledger, and you have kept the covenant longer than any living thing remembers making it.
