"She lived up in the mountains in the heart of the woods in a tiny house that could be best described as a cottage, if such a thing still existed. It was a long journey, a few hours by car, but the twins loved every minutes of it. Their anticipation would grow as they traveled up the windy roads and through the endless tress, and when they crossed a yellow bridge, the twins would excitedly exclaim, We're almost there! We're almost there!" [TLOS I, ch. 1 p. 19]
