THE WEAVE:

Mars writes back

to Vesta…

"You know,
the Husk of True

Faith, is older
than Word.

Your World, is a web
of symbols.  Yes,

you speak them,
but who is

the One who Sees them
in your Heart?  Pain

-stakingly carrying out
each gem, One by One?

-Piling them on your Hearth,
and you, ungrateful.  You

should really stop
turning off, Selena..."
