The yew knows your name. The willow has wept your tears. The cypress stands ready for your funeral. The oak will guard your grave.
The plants of the dead have been waiting for you.

This is not a book about death. It is a book about serving the dead. It is a book about the relationship between the living, the plants, and the ancestors. It is a book about the work that must be done.
The bone orchard is calling you home. The plants are ready. The ancestors are waiting.
Are you ready to serve?
