Milner's narration seemed like the way grief would be understood by a child or a childlike person. Not necessarily a supernatural thing, but still very heavy and oppressive.

The part about the colors left behind really resonated. Like how the light seems to change when you remember something from the past and your mind creates copies upon copies of places you used to frequent but have changed irrevocably. And as to whether it is a ghost or the strange fae changeling spirit left by something otherworldly to act as an improper anchor to the family’s grief, who can say?
