the seven songs of wizardry
one melody and many,
the souls of the songs
Changing - All of us, all living things, have the potential to change. Binding - The strongest bonds are of the heart. Protecting - The best way to protect something is to set it free. Naming - For a true name holds true power. Leaping - Everything is connected to everything else. Eliminating - Every living thing is precious somehow. Seeing - The heart can see things invisible to the eye.
I’ve been wanting to try my hand at an aesthetic, so what better subject than a beloved series that helped shape who I am as a person. I read it first when I was very young, and it was even more enjoyable re-reading it this year as a(n alleged) adult.
Thanks, Mr. Barron, for sharing Merlin’s lost years with the lot of us.
