"Marian was able to escape her abusive childhood home and in a hospital she later met Romney who treated her kindly which lead her to believing in God because of his kindness. When she worked as a seamstress, she tried to be just as a kind as him.

“The most merciful thing in the world, I think, is the inability of the human mind to correlate all its contents... some day the piecing together of dissociated knowledge will open up such terrifying vistas of reality, and of our frightful position therein, that we shall either go mad from the revelation or flee from the light into the peace and safety of a new Dark Age.”

“All that is gold does not glitter,
Not all those who wander are lost;
The old that is strong does not wither,
Deep roots are not reached by the frost.

The crownless again shall be king.”
