If you want to know all about the sea ... and ask the sea itself, what does it say? Grumble grumble swish swish. It is too busy being itself to know anything about itself.

- According to Celtic beliefs, hawthorns are sacred and magical and must never be picked as they guard the entrance to the faerie world.

"Turn each of your thoughts into a bird
And let them fly to the other world.
One is an owl, one is a falcon, one is a crow.
Each one is different from the others
But they are all the same in silence." (Rumi)

A2: Lacey is in many ways a third protagonist. In Last Space Wizard Agent Bill, also sometimes fills this role as well. The moments they become major depend entirely on the situation. For my stories they're their to give a relatable outlook on outlandish events.
