There are remedies written carefully into books, measured by the drop and brewed beneath the proper moon. Yet for years, every formula they uncovered ended the same way, with one final line lost to time.

I am so glad I had the time at the beginning of this year to create a piece like this for Snowโs birthday, and happier I finally feel ready to share it with you.

Wishing everyone a beautiful summer. ๐ฟ
