The wind hasn't blown in this valley since the 17th century, yet the sails of the old mill haven't stopped their rhythmic, bone-deep groaning for a single second. You stand knee-deep in the thorny, dead brush, watching the way the moon seems to pin the structure against the sky like a moth in a display case. The locals tell stories about a miller who didn't grind grain, but instead harvested the heavy, black dust that settles on your mind when you spend too much time in the dark. Every time a bat circles the spire, another forgotten secret is ground into the soil beneath your feet. You came here looking for the truth, but the slow, agonizing rotation of the blades suggests youβre just about to become part of the next batch.
