Nothing not built with hands of course is sacred. But here is not a question of what's sacred Rather of what to face or run away from. I'd hate to be a runaway from nature.

It was far in the sameness of the wood I was running with joy on the Demon's trail, Though I knew what I hunted was no true god.
