in the hushed, unspoken corridors of this ancient abode, where whispers of the past and echoes of the now mingle, i've seen many a guest dismiss the idea of spectral presences. yet, in the realm of spirits, we often start from the commencement point of understanding, guided by the pre-initiation of long-forgotten lore. such statements, though unseen, are felt deeply by those who ride the gossamer trains of thought, connecting the seen and the unseen, the spoken and the unspoken, in a positive, eternal journey that transcends the boundaries of time and space.
