Epigraph

Everything is laid out for you. Your path is straight ahead of you. Sometimes it's invisible, but it's there. You may not know where it's going / But you have to follow that path. It's the path to the Creator. It's the only path there is. -- Chief Leon Shenandoah

Dedication

For my mother, for all her truth and passionate goodness / For Eryk, my husband and Beloved / For Mara, sister of my spirit / For Leila, incomparable heart-friend
