Rolling fields. Willows bent low. Castles defending high hills. Twisting rivers. Treacherous rapids. And a vicious plot to untangle. TARRY IN TRELLESTER. LIFE IS SWEET HERE. Until the bitterness bleeds through.

Collage of images: rolling hills, rivers, dice, a knife, a harp, a flower on a hillside, a walled city, holding hands

Oceans. Islands. Sand. Salt air. Palms waving beneath a brilliant sun. Tide pools and starfish, quick-swimming fish and white stone. And the location of one of two magical colleges on Karneesia. COME TO CADRUISSAU. THE WATER’S FINE. Or is it?

Out today: Feeding Texas estimates that its 20 member banks have lost a total of $57.6 million in federal funding cuts, and that’s only in immediate canceled funding. But this could actually be on the low end of the potential impact range.

When I say Christmas Gothic, this is what I mean: “After dark had fallen—early, for wintertime, and doubly so for all the coal smoke and smog that filled the air—a woman swathed in black disembarked from Paddington Station and merged with the foot traffic on the streets of London.
