And so it begins

Try and regard it kindly, for it was written as such...
Perpetual motion was the preferred way of keeping doubt and disdain at bay; words have trouble sticking to a moving target, or so the thought went, anyway. It was a peculiarity of self-perception that one of the most rooted and primally solid of people became self-convinced that the life of a cyclone was preferable (granted, a small, benevolent cyclone). Recognition seemed to be a curious thing, both gladly noted, but evaded or retreated from in the instant after it was noted. That the difference between solidity and stillness, between vulnerability and accessibility, was confused remained a tragedy to all who were, or would be, near.
