Faith won’t open the door.<br />
She won’t.<br />

The owl is patient, so very patient. It has taken me many<br />
people since it began. They could not resist. Human curiosity, it has<br />
always thought, is such a wonderful thing.<br />
They can never stand the not knowing. They open the door,<br />
they ask the question, they push the big red button. The owl does<br />
not know what is beyond the door it guards, it can only feel the<br />
spark of the souls it takes as they fizzle out against the cold. Such a<br />
wonderful feeling, the owl muses. Oh yes. It can wait a little longer.
