— and the question from the box today was submitted by a keeper we haven't named, which is itself a kind of answer, isn't it. The note reads: If a hollowed keeper is still in the Ledger, still giving gifts, still receiving them — what does hollowed do to them? Is it something that happens, or something they choose?

We placed that question back in the box, because it needs time.

Tamsin, however — Tamsin has submitted a follow-up. This one she handed to us directly, which is not the usual procedure, but we have decided the procedure can hold. She writes: In the old rhyme, the hollowed one is not sad. She just goes walking where the Count can't follow. I thought hollowed was something that happened to you. But if the Draw Office is asking about it too, maybe it's something you can ask for.

We will keep both questions in the box.

We are told the Draw Office has not yet replied to our last correspondence. We are not in a hurry. Quiet Hour follows.
