Keep his mind on the inner life. He thinks his conversion is something inside him and his attention is therefore chiefly turned at present to the states of his own mind—or
“Allo, darlin’. Oi’m so glad to see it’s love at first sight for you, too.”

“People’s minds, particularly the minds of children, are like wells—deep wells full of sweet water. And sometimes, when a particular thought is too unpleasant to bear, the person who has that thought will lock it into a heavy box and throw it into that well. He listens for the splash . . . and then the box is gone. Except it is not, of course. Not really.”

“Hello, Lucy. Do you name all your weapons, Grunthor?”
“O’ course. It’s tradition.”
Rhapsody nodded, understanding coming into her eyes. “That makes perfect sense. Do you find that you fight better with a weapon you’ve named?”
“Yep.”
Her eyes began to sparkle with excitement. “Why, Grunthor, in a way, you’re a Namer, too!”
The giant broke into a pleased grin. “Well, whaddaya know. Should Oi sing a lit’le song?”
“No,” said Rhapsody and Achmed in unison.”

“So now you know that, as dark as the depths of the sea may be, as dark as the night gets without a moon, it is not really true darkness. It's just waiting for light to return. There are places that are truly dark in this world, Ven, but this place here, this open stretch of sea where you are floating, is not one of them. It's not really dark here - it's just night. If you hang on and stay awake, in a short while the edges of the sky will start to turn gray, then pink, and the sun will rise, and there will be blue above and all around you again.”
