Patience Wins

At sixteen you sat among papers in your three uncles' room and asked what they had learned from repeated visits to Arrowfield. You know the place well enough to calculate over it, yet every civil question receives another uncle's name. You step into this one-chapter preview with Uncle Dick at the center, where choices turn on the people, promises, and pressure already in the room. The council closed on agreement and an untested industrial fight. The chapter closes on a continuation question rather than resolving the novel's larger arc.
