It is still a standalone novel, but might benefit from having read those works first. They may all be found \emph{post-self.ink} as paperbacks, ebooks, and free to read in the browser. \vspace{1cm} \noindent\textbf{Content notes:} themes of self harm, suicide, and poor mental health. The section with Warmth In Fire on page \pageref{warmth} is a collaboration with Samantha Yule Fireheart. The sections with The Dog on page \pageref{thedog1} and \pageref{thedog2} are a collaboration with Krzysztof ``Tomash'' Drewniak. \newpage \singlespacing \begin{center} {\Large \DisplayFont \underline{Dramatis Personae}} \vspace{0.7em} {\DisplayFont\underline{The Ode clade}} \vspace{0.7em} {\DisplayFont\small Your Humble Narrator} Dear The Wheat And Rye Under The Stars \vspace{0.7em} {\DisplayFont\small The Woman} To Pray For The End Of Endings \vspace{0.7em} {\DisplayFont\small Her Friend} I Must Show No Hesitation When Speaking My Name \vspace{0.7em} {\DisplayFont\small Her Therapist} Where I May Ever Dream \vspace{0.7em} {\DisplayFont\small Her Cocladist} Should We Rejoice In The End Of Endings \vspace{0.7em} {\DisplayFont\small The Oneirotect} Which Offers Heat And Warmth In Fire \vspace{0.7em} {\DisplayFont\small The Instance Artist} Dear, Also, The Tree That Was Felled \vspace{0.7em} {\DisplayFont\small The Poet} Where It Watches the Slow Hours Progress \vspace{0.7em} {\DisplayFont\small The Musician} Beholden To The Heat Of The Lamps \vspace{0.7em} {\DisplayFont\small The Child} And We Are The Motes In The Stage-Lights \vspace{0.7em} {\DisplayFont\small The Narrator's Friend} Time Is A Finger Pointing At Itself \vspace{0.7em} {\DisplayFont\small The Blue Fairy} I Remember The Rattle Of Dry Grass \newpage \phantom{\Large \DisplayFont \underline{Dramatis Personae}} \vspace{0.7em} {\DisplayFont\underline{Others}} \vspace{0.7em} {\DisplayFont\small Her Lover} Farai \vspace{0.7em} {\DisplayFont\small The Dog} Scout Among Weird Skunks With Good Kettlecorn \vspace{0.7em} {\DisplayFont\small His Elder} Tomash \vspace{0.7em} {\DisplayFont\small The Rabbit-Chaser} \fbox{\rule{1in}{0pt}\rule[0.2ex]{0pt}{1.1ex}} (called ``Scout Chasing Rabbits'') \vfill And, of course, you, my dear, \emph{dear} reader. \end{center} \mainmatter \onehalfspacing \pagestyle{empty} \cleardoublepage \null \vfill \begin{verse} And am I born to die?\\ To lay this body down!\\ And must my trembling spirit fly\\ into a world unknown?\\ A land of deepest shade;\\ Unpierced by human thought.\\ The dreary regions of the dead,\\ Where all things are forgot.
