The property he wanted was thirty acres of overgrown orchard known as "The Gable." It had been abandoned since the 90s, choked by bittersweet vines and wild raspberries. To most, it was a liability. To Elias, it was the only place where the air tasted like silence.
"You know, Elias, a mortgage would have been much faster," Marcus said, counting the weathered bills.
He was broke now—completely penniless—but for the first time in his life, he felt like he finally had enough room to breathe.
He kept his "land money" in a heavy cedar box under his floorboards. It wasn’t just paper; it was thousands of hours of inhaled iron dust and skipped meals. Every time the box grew heavier, his world grew larger.
"A mortgage means the bank owns the sunrise," Elias replied softly. "I wanted to make sure it belonged to me before I saw it."
