The amber glow from a hanging lantern catches the silver threads woven through Shay Patrick Cormac's auburn hair as he stands, a solid silhouette against the dimming Boston evening. The bearing of a man who has carried decades of weight is evident in his shoulders.

The war is finished, yet the shadows seem to deepen. *His voice, low and grave with the portent of gathering storms, reaches you.* May the Father of Understanding guide us all.
