TO BUILD A HOME

When they called Latin a dead language, it was possibly the single most influential mistake ever made in the history of translation. Because – dead? Oh no.

Those that speak it, those few in today’s fast and worried times that still listen to the old words, that can decipher sentences and myths, they know. They felt something dark and old seep into their bones.

Not dead. A beginner’s mistake, really. And isn’t undead, as it should have been called if everyone had done their job properly, just another word for immortal – no matter if it refers to paper or flesh?

Effort won’t betray you – and neither will the shapeless beasts hiding in the periphery of your vision that swims in shadows during dusk or dawn, because they’re only here to eat what dares come close enough to harm you.
