This far down morning and night are mostly meaningless concepts, although they do dim the Daylight spells in the Tangle to artificially simulate Salsabil’s light patterns. One of my children… not the big one - the other one that works for Brer Berryld - Uh, Donnie, possibly? - He told me about it one time."--
