    Summary

    His grandmother was the one who taught Gen about their connection.

    Someone else might have called it magic, or a power, or a gift. But she never used any of those words. “It’s simply what we are,” she told him. “A conversation between us and the land.”

    The spirits of the place - root, leaf, cloud, river, stone - spoke to them. And they could speak back, even command to a gentle extent. Gen’s grandmother could coax stubborn plants into flourishing, call a storm’s attention until it gathered overhead, or listen to the wind mutter news from distant hills. She said every human had a connection to the earth’s spirit, but most were deaf to it. Gen and his grandmother, though - theirs ran deep. Deeper than reason, deeper than blood.

    Gen is magic. This changes everything.

    Bookmarker's Notes

    Life-changing fic that will haunt me for the rest of my life (in a good way); I love this fic more than myself, the way the story and the characters are written, the pacing, everything about this fic is scrumptious and just absolutely beautiful. It's truly the best piece of fiction I've ever had the honor and privilege of reading
