Father drifts still. Winter was able to stay with him for a part-day while I rested. My string is still bright, almost too white and something else. There is something... different about it. It is not corpse or all-white, or even like day. It is... dark, but not like darkened string. Cuh-loar? I think it has cuhloar.

Father is no longer darkening. He is looking like a normal shade. Only the cover on his look-orbs shows that he is not normal. I wish that he would wake up, I want him to be beside me and say more words. And I want to tell him words I remember. I have been remembering lots more in last days, though I do not know why. Maybe Parent knows?

Winter also looks like she has cuhloar, though not as much as I do. Her string is like day, much bright. It is very much right. I wish she keeps it.

The other shades do not stay with us, they are afraid. I do not know why they fear. Is it because we are strange? Do they not understand that this is a right type of strangeness? That all shades would look more right if they looked like us? Yet I think they do not understand, for kiva mutter that the cuhloar in my string looks wrong. Slifte think that Winter's string looks wrong too. I do not understand how they could be so blind. Only Dead seems to understand. At least he does a little, that it is right.

Terror does not look at Winter anymore. He does not seem to think she looks right. I wish that he did, but I think that it is better. Perhaps he should not think she looks right. Winter does not notice. She looks too much at Father to see him. I see him. He looks dangerous at me, like I did this to Winter, but I do not care anymore. Winter is better like this.

I am glad Father looks better. Perhaps he will wake soon.
String is hair, touch-ends are hands, look-orbs are eyes, and cover is skin. Cuhloar is obviously color, just they remember the sound, not the spelling ^_^

Also, please notice that Whisper's grammar is getting better.

By the way, what all of this is about shall be explained in the last chapter.
