- in the name of Allah -

From Liveship Traders, book 3:

"...A man's loss of his mate may be the essential trigger that determines all events from henceforth. Do you not see how strange and wonderful that is? That all history balances on an affair of the human heart?"
He looked at the odd woman and shook his head. "That isn't how I see it, Amber. That isn't how I see it at all. It's just my life, and now that I have finally discovered what I must have to be happy, I'm willing to lay down my life for it. That's all." 


'Happy'? Couldn't quite say, its taste is too strange for me to really grasp. But if I can lay claim to something beyond happiness, then this notion expresses my perspective very well. What is beyond the mystery of happiness? For me, completion.
