Tis Strange

Macbeth ruled during a time when the old gods were not yet forgotten. Almost no one could read and their memories and stories reached back into the deepest shadows. When the imagination stretches backwards as well as forwards it creates a sort of slide, or ladder. Like the childrens game! Time is much thicker. There is a substance about it that allows beings to gain purchase. Both bog and castle, moor and battlefield, chivalry and nightmare: scarred leather armor, moss-covered stone, shadows upon shadows, and billows of black incense.
