between the forces of light and darkness in different regions alter the length
of day. Certain points of the year are more beneficial to one side or the
other, so in the “winter” months the forces of darkness hold sway
and daylight time is reduces. In summer months the forces of light are
more powerful and manage to increase their domain. In fall and spring
power is about even. The Sidhe and Elder continue to bang their broom
handles on the ceiling, telling the jerks upstairs to keep it down and stop
with the partly lights already.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
