Stone Circle No Stranger To Pain

Good, she said.
Not that they're biased against your gender, but that you're not alone. It is good you have found a place; and if it were to not work out, you would be welcome here.

She was quiet a moment.

I am building a home here. I think... I want to call it Kvarsheim, for these stones - there are already some women who have come to live here, and a girl, who I call my daughter. Sanja's eyes turned from the man to look upon the horizon, where along its edge there could be seen several distant monuments rising like spinal segments; and of course the closer one in the meadow, which was her favorite.

My children... They seemed to shift when she mentioned them, and her face pinched with mild discomfort. They will be here soon. I hope this place will be kind to them.
