(Viking ring cross pendant by Regal Pewter.)
Four, you understand? The number of the working shall be four. Four directions, four quadrants.
Four chambers of the human heart.
Four paths in this circle, and all converge. There is no escape for what we’ve got in there. Rivers and circles forever, and no way out, no matter how much they rage. Four winds, four powers. Four seasons, four humors.
Four wings.
You count them out. You sing them. You keep them safe within.
