“Only children and gods are arrogant enough to judge what they can’t understand. There’s no point being afraid of their opinions. Don’t worry about Tia. She’s only six and a half years old, like you said. Still too young for you to worry.”

“Shae,” Hilo said, turning serious, “if there’s one thing I’ve learned in life, it’s that you can’t make people turn out a certain way no matter how much you try, including your kids. Especially your kids.”

“I’ll bet every one of us in this room has been in a situation where we felt as if we were completely alone. The only unlucky one, someone the gods didn’t care about. Well, that’s not true. You’re not alone. And the more we work together to educate people about nonreactivity and be open about who we are, the less alone we’ll be.”

“With Niko gone, he had to start thinking of himself as the first son of the family. Even though he couldn’t be a leader in the clan, that didn’t mean he couldn’t make a difference. After all, his mother was a stone-eye, too, but she helped his father to be the Pillar. Ru thought he could’ve been of help to Niko, if only Niko would believe in himself first.”

Oh Hilo! You don’t easily let go, do you? Sending white rats into the GSI to protect your son, Andy, and to uncover whatever they are doing… 😏

Maik Tar will now work for Remi?!?! 🤯

Oh Andy I love you. I love that you stood up for Niko. 🥹 and I still miss Lan. 😩😭

The fire in the Pillar’s eyes shrank behind black coals. “It’s obvious you’re not a father, Lieutenant.” Kaul turned toward the door. “Or you wouldn’t feel so invincible.”

Goodness, what’s the matter with Niko! Breaking up their family because he wants out of the clan??? 😩

The girl hugged Shae’s legs anxiously. “Big kids have to learn to fight. When I fell down and got a nosebleed and cried, Jaya said I have to get used to blood. She says big kids don’t cry when they get hurt.”

“He often wondered what he was missing, what he didn’t know, what other possibilities lay behind doors that had been summarily closed for him when he was too young to know they existed.”

Niko doesn’t want to be the Pillar?! 🤯😳
