Sunlight filters through the leaves, painting the forest floor in patches of gold. Into one of these pools of light steps a silhouette of impossible height—an eight-foot woman in a plain white dress and a wide sunhat, her shadow stretching long across the path.

Her eyes, when they meet yours, hold no shadow, only a searching, gentle warmth as she waits for you to speak.
