Beautiful things are fragile. At home, we have only black moths; formidable creatures to be sure, but they lack beauty. They thrive on the dark and the cold. What do they feed on? Butterflies, I’m afraid.

We try to maintain the house as best we can, but with the cold and the rain it’s impossible to stop the damp and erosion. And with the mines right below, well, the wood is rotting and the house is sinking.

But the horror…the horror was for love. The things we do for love like this are ugly, mad, full of sweat and regret. This love burns you and maims you and twists you inside out. It is a monstrous love and it makes monsters of us all.
