The rain that swept through the Sanctuary today has finally passed, leaving the world washed clean under a sky of breaking clouds. Moonlight filters down, making the damp leaves of the Redwood Forest gleam and casting long, soft shadows from The Great Tree across the now-confirmed meadow. High on the Grand Mesa, the surveyor's flags at the Observatory site are still, the air crisp and cold. A profound quiet has settled over the valley, the kind of stillness that only comes after a storm, full of peace and the promise of a clear day to come.
