You are on your knees at the yarrow ridge, pressing crushed leaves into a wound that isn't yours. The blood is black in the moonlight, and you know that the person who left it is not the one bleeding — something old and hollow trails behind them. You have been following this trail for three nights, and the ridge bends with you, remembering your name.
