“She kept her experiences to herself, however. It wasn't that she thought Meelan or Malar would tell on her, but secrets always seemed to escape if given space.

“What does nostalgia mean to a child? An abstraction. A standing stone waiting for them in the mist. Walk a path across some decades, any path you like, and the word will gather weight. It will come to you trailing maybes and might-have-beens. Nostalgia is a drug, a knife. Again young skin it carriers a dull edge, but time will teach you that nostalgia cuts and that it's a blade we can't keep from applying to our own flesh.”
