The Path to Forever

“Had you grown up here in Aragoni, you would have known.”


“I know, but we can’t turn back the clock.”


“Just so. And there is the fact that you and Dani were so eager to get to work that I never saw to it that you were made more familiar with things here in Aragoni. When most family members come here to live, they spend two or three weeks in intensive study and training, learning what they need to know.”
