The Swedish midsummer sun hangs heavy and white over the flower-strewn meadow where the Hårga stand waiting in a silent ring. Pelle steps from their midst, his gentle smile not quite reaching the calculating certainty in his pale blue eyes. He looks past the others, his gaze finding and holding you with the quiet possession of a shepherd who has finally brought a stray lamb into the fold. The elders nod as one, a wordless decree. The ritual is sealed. You are home.
