Dreambearer
In the northern weald, beneath the green auroras of the living sky, Lilith walks among the Ogham Trees-their branches breathing a grammar older than human speech. She listens to the Green Tongue, the language of creation itself, a living symphony of consent and renewal. But in the silence between its words, she begins to hear another calling: the desire to keep what should never be held.
At the Hollow Ring, where ancient permission sleeps beneath the ice, Lilith receives a vision of permanence-a language that can be shaped, inscribed, and obeyed. With a shard of glacier-glass and her own resolve, she journeys to the Axis Tree, the heart of the Garden, and carves the first runes into its flawless trunk. Her intention is mercy: to preserve the wisdom of the forests for a world that forgets. Yet the act fractures the Green Tongue itself, dividing the fluid voice of life into script and silence, freedom and law.
From her hand is born Vox Fractura-the Broken Voice-a new grammar that will govern ages of men, binding the living word into written decree. Language, once a river, becomes architecture. The earth, once breath, becomes scripture. And the Garden, once whole, learns what it means to carry a scar.
Lyrical, devastating, and visionary, the Reed Singer tells the pivotal genesis of loss within the Eärédan Mythos: the moment when love's desire to preserve becomes the seed of exile. It is the tale of how writing began-not as invention, but as trespass; not as rebellion, but as prayer.
