Hookland County Council now calls them 'Restricted Byways'. We call them by
their old names: corpse roads; coffin paths; lych lines; wraith ways. I reckon
that's what the dead still call them as well – whatever bloody signs HCC put up.

Goodnight from John Darley, making good use of his Devil’s Own Luck charm down
the snooker hall. Goodnight from Thea Tibbs, sleeping with a small pouch of
skullcap under her pillow in hopes it will keep 'Protect and Survive' nightmares
from her sleeping. Goodnight from Hookland.

On this cold night, a traditional Hookland blessing: "May none of our burning be
Sprite-wood."

The Marsh Ape Research Society's (MARS) erection of observation towers along the
Restal Waste was not without controversy. Some locals felt attempting to spy on
Marsh Apes would only summon trouble. Given the level of vandalism the hides
have suffered, they might have been right.

Goodnight from the Church of the Hidden Voice soup kitchen, where John Perry is
sure they’ve spiked his cup of tea with something profoundly psychedelic.
Goodnight from ‘Witch Kettle’ Sam, whistling the wood to see which sprites are
already at torpor. Goodnight from Hookland.

Children have an appititude for certain things. They know which pools have Stay
Belows. They know instantly if a tree is home to a Wood Sprite. Some say it is a
natural sympathy for magic. Myself, I believe it to be closer to a survival
instinct. – Joanna Vickers

For I am of the England where every turn of the way may offer ghost-glimpse or a
growling by sprites. Whether deep country lane or path beside railway track, to
walk is to scuff up stories. To walk is increase one's chances of an encounter
with wonder. –

The Hum called us to walk the electric ley of the land. The Hum pulled us
through the year. We marched the seasons. We would sleep under our transmission
tower temples, waking to both Midsummer dew and Midwinter frost-lace. - Tattoo

Goodnight from Izzy Nook, hoping that the ghost pig of Pen Woods likes the pile
of acorns she left out for him. Goodnight from the band members of Hemlock Exit,
wondering why anyone thought it a good idea to build a recording studio in a
former mortuary. Goodnight from Hookland.

Sometimes the phantoms that wait for us in pooling light are free from all sense
of fear. They walk ahead of us as guides, promises of a sheltering destination
at the end of the way. As age's darkening night pulls close, these are the
ghosts I hope to meet. –

Hello. Three thousand plus of you in six days. All a bit dizzying. Anyway, all
you really need to know about the county is that you already own it. Direct
messages are open if you have any questions or just want to say hi.

Hookland has the dialect word staraback – a day which seems to stand still while
it looks behind itself and reflects on the path it has walked to the now. County
folklore has them as a time to harvest omens and to release imprisoned hurts of
the heart. –

Re-enchantment is resistance. Not my original words but my ethos and mission.
The words came originally from
@hookland.bsky.social
and they resonate more every day. One of the things I take very seriously.

I have managed to get hold of a copy of Charlotte Pond’s ‘Gog and Magog’. It is
comforting to know that even a century ago, there was a market for novels about
a tribe of giants and their worship of moon goddess. Hope for me yet! –

Not that it matters to anyone other than me, but that is the first post from the
county that debuted on Bluesky and probably won't get posted on Twitter.

A witch knows every threshold is engine for her magics. On this year's edge,
walking upon its gift of golden carpets, she feels time's power. She aches not
for spells to glue leaves back to trees, but rather for one that offers
remembrance. –

Goodnight from Denny Beldon and associates, increasingly unsure their plan to
burgle The Museum of Faery at Wadham is worth the risk. Goodnight from the crow
clans of Grype Wood, collectively dreaming of a feast of mice to get them
through the winter. Goodnight from Hookland.
