The Feast of Birds is dedicated to Avalei, the Goddess of Love and Death, of whom my master had said: “Not all that is ancient is worthy of praise.”

The Feast of Birds is dedicated to Avalei, the Goddess of Love and Death, of whom my master had said: “Not all that is ancient is worthy of praise.”
Words are sublime, and in books we may commune with the dead. Beyond this there is nothing true, no voices we can hear.
The truth has its own virtue, which is separate from its content.
Someone tell me why my roadis eternally strewn with ashes.
