“Before a dream is realized, the Soul of the World tests everything that was learned along the way. It does this not because it is evil, but so that we can, in addition to realizing our dreams, master the lessons we’ve learned as we’ve moved toward that dream.

And one can always come back. If what you had found was only a moment of light, like the explosion of a star, you would find nothing on your return.”
