- [The Light That Did Not Answer Part 1](https://northernghostworks.com/the-light-that-did-not-answer-part-1/): The Light That Did Not Answer Part 1   Year of Our Lord 557 Recorded by Brother Gildas Part One We saw the tower before we reached the village beneath it, a broken finger of stone against the sky where the moor gives way to cliff and the cliff gives way, without warning, to the sea. Norwyn stopped walking before any of us. He does this rarely, and never without cause, so I stopped as well, and asked what troubled him. He did not answer. He looked at the tower a long while, the way a man looks at a face […]
- [The Fog Returns](https://northernghostworks.com/the-fog-returns/): The Fog Returns Year of Our Lord 557, the first cold nights of autumn Recorded by Brother Gildas It came in from the river at dusk, the way it always comes, though I do not usually remark on weather in these pages. I remark on it now because Norwyn stopped walking when he saw it, and Norwyn does not often stop for weather. By full dark it had taken the whole of the lower town. A man could not see his own hand held at arm’s length, nor hear much beyond it either — the fog seemed to close over sound […]
- [The Wisp](https://northernghostworks.com/the-wisp/): Year of Our Lord 557 Recorded by Brother Gildas The Wisp The Light Beyond the Heather We went out because a shepherd would not go out himself, and asked us to go in his place, which is not the usual order of things, but he was frightened in a manner I have learned not to argue with. The ground beyond the heather falls away into marsh before it rises again toward the far ridge, and it was there, he said, that the light could be seen most evenings once the dark had properly settled — violet at its heart, pale blue […]
- [Gilded Woman](https://northernghostworks.com/gilded-woman/): Year of Our Lord 557 An account given to Brother Wilfrid by an old woman of the valley, called Aedre, and set down by him as nearly as he could recall her words Gilded Woman *I set this down as she gave it to me, changing as little as I am able. She would not come with us to the chapel herself. She said she had seen enough of it for one lifetime, and did not care to test whether it remembered her.* — W. — You ask about the old chapel below the ridge. I will tell you, though I […]
- [Amber Child](https://northernghostworks.com/amber-child/): Year of Our Lord 557 From the Sketchbook of Brother Norwyn Amber Child Wilfrid asked me to set down what I would not say aloud. I do not write easily. These are not sentences so much as things I noted, in the order I noted them. First evening. A child at the end of the path, where the trees close over it. Small. Standing, not walking. Gone before I had turned my head fully. I thought it was the sun. It was low and behind him and I said nothing, because a boy lit gold by a low sun is not […]
- [Ink Stained Monk](https://northernghostworks.com/ink-stained-monk/): Year of Our Lord 557 Recorded by Brother Gildas Ink Stained Monk I record this one reluctantly, and for a reason I will explain at the end, though I suspect Wilfrid will say I have explained too much already by the time I reach it. We were shown the room by the brothers of a small house of prayer built, they told us, before their own order held it — a British foundation, older than any of them, kept on rather than pulled down when the land changed hands, as such places sometimes are, because a house of God is a […]
- [The Jewelled Widow](https://northernghostworks.com/the-jewelled-widow/): Year of Our Lord 557 Recorded by Brother Wilfrid The Jewelled Widow We found the house because Gildas would not stop complaining about the rain. It stood apart from any village, on rising ground above a stream that had long since chosen a different course. Once it had been a fine house — Roman work, or built by those who remembered Roman work. Tiled floors showed beneath the moss. A staircase of stone climbed one wall to a room that no longer had a roof to reach. We meant only to shelter until the rain passed. Gildas went first. He is […]
- [The Boy at the Ford](https://northernghostworks.com/the-boy-at-the-ford/): The Boy at the Ford Year of Our Lord 557 Recorded by Brother Wilfrid There is a ford north of Eoforwic where the river runs shallow between two banks of alder. We had been warned not to cross it after sunset. The warning came from an old farmer whose name I have forgotten, though I remember his hands. They were large and cracked from the earth, and he had the habit of rubbing his thumb against his fingers whenever he spoke of something he did not wish to remember. He told us that a boy could sometimes be seen beside the […]
- [The Man Beneath the Roman Road](https://northernghostworks.com/the-man-beneath-the-roman-road/): The Man Beneath the Roman Road Year of Our Lord 557 Recorded by Brother Gildas There are roads in this land that belong to no man now. The people who made them are gone, and the stones have been taken from them for walls and hearths, yet still they run beneath the grass, straight as an arrow where no living man would think to make a road. We followed one such road three days east of Eoforwic. Brother Wilfrid complained that my choice of path was poor. Brother Ystradwel said nothing. He rarely does when Wilfrid and I disagree. It was […]
- [She Is Remembered](https://northernghostworks.com/she-is-remembered/): She Is Remembered Entry dated the 3rd day of the month of Blodmonath, Year of Our Lord 558 Today we met Veil Walker near the marshes east of Eoforwic. She is a woman of our own blood, still wearing the simple gown she was buried in. Her sorrow is heavy — she seeks her child who died in the last great fever. I sat with her until the moon was high. I told her she is remembered. She did not speak with words, but her eyes grew softer before she faded into the mist. Eternal Wanderer was also seen upon the […]
- [The Mists Over Eoforwic](https://northernghostworks.com/the-mists-over-eoforwic/): BROTHER GILDAS The Mists Over Eoforwic Entry dated the 12th day after the Feast of St. Michael, Year of Our Lord 557 Once more the mists have thickened over Eoforwic. Tonight I beheld Grave Shadow, a tall figure wrapped in the ragged cloak of a Roman legionary. He walks the old wall near the south gate, his eyes hollow with forgotten duty. He spoke not, yet I felt his sorrow,  a soldier who died far from home and now cannot find rest. We must record these souls. Not out of fear, but out of mercy. For if we forget the dead, […]

## Products

- [The Wisp](https://northernghostworks.com/shop/the-wisp/): The pin:   The Wisp is a Northern Ghost Works ghost pin filled with swirling violet, blue, dusky rose and deep moorland green.  Its pattern reflects the strange colours described by the hunters on the night they encountered her — the dark heather beneath their feet, the last colour of the evening sky, and the unnatural violet light that moved ahead of them across the moor.    
- [Gilded Woman](https://northernghostworks.com/shop/gilded-woman/): The pin: 2 inch long, Cut out eyes, Single clutch fastening.  The Gilded Woman pin carries worn blue, pale plaster and thick fragments of ancient-looking gold. Its pattern is inspired by the deteriorating painted walls surrounding the place where the hunters encountered her.
- [Ink Stained Monk](https://northernghostworks.com/shop/ink-stained-monk/): The Ink-Stained Monk ghost pin uses aged parchment, faded writing, ink marks and centuries of staining. The pattern represents the manuscripts and fragments studied by the hunters while trying to discover who the silent figure might have been.
- [Burnt Man](https://northernghostworks.com/shop/burnt-man/): The pin: 2 inch long, Cut out eyes, Single clutch fastening.    The Burnt Man pin is filled with scorched earth tones, ash, smoke and blistered textures inspired by the traces left behind during his investigation.
- [The Jewelled Widow](https://northernghostworks.com/shop/the-jewelled-widow/): The pin:  The Jewelled Widow enamel pin carries fragments of tarnished silver, faded turquoise, old jewellery and flashes of colour within the familiar Northern Ghost Works ghost. Its richly layered pattern reflects the objects associated with the haunting — precious things kept long after their owners have gone.
