More new meetings, and a haunting laugh. Thornfield is both beautiful and dark. But what of its master? 

A new chapter and a new beginning. Much is learned, and yet so much is still unrevealed.

A secret mission, a reunion, and the start of a new phase. Note: You can hear that I am still not fully recovered from recent illness. I sincerely hope it is not too distracting. I apologize if it is.

Beauty and loss. Note: I am recovering from RSV, so my voice is a little off. I am not in pain, and didn't want to make you wait any longer for this chapter, so I hope you'll forgive the lingering roughness.

Jane begins to feel at home.

It's Aalllliiiivvveee. The poem in this chapter is credited via footnote to Coleridge's "Ancient Mariner." Like one who, on a lonely road,/ Doth walk in fear and dread,/ And, having once turned round, walks on,/ And turns no more his head;/ Because he knows a frightful fiend/ Doth close behind him tread.
