Afterword
So I got my family back, and we all lived happily together. Greta grew up beautiful and gentle and kind. I made sure she married a good man. My Dad worked in the mill until the day he died and I buried him under the Juniper Tree by my Mother, his real wife. After that I got rid of the mill and closed the house. I live in Tall Pines with the birds now, far away from men.
I think about Rayn sometimes. I’ll never forget that day. Sometimes at night I have dreams and I’m a bird again and I can fly. But when I wake up I know it isn’t true.
