The first of three.

It is being written right now, in real time, by someone still in it. Not from the other side of having figured it out. From inside the same woods you are standing in.

It is about the woman you were before you were told who to be. And what it takes to find your way back to her.

Returning is the first of three. Book one is the inward work. Book two is the life that has to be strong enough to hold it. Book three is the village it cannot live without.

Three altitudes of the same returning. Different territory each time.

The first arrives in early 2027.
