Searching For Josey Daniels In -

The answer arrived in the form of a child with paint on her knuckles and a missing front tooth. She said her name was Poppy. "Josey taught me to paint the ocean across the sky," she said simply, eyes like chips of river glass. She had a pad of paper under her arm, and when she unfolded its pages, the group recognized a recurring motif: a small door painted inside a crescent moon. On the last page, Poppy had painted one with the door slightly ajar and moonlight spilling through.
