"Your grandfather," said Vanyel's brawny, fifteen-year-old cousin Radevel, "was crazy." He has a point, Vanyel thought, hoping they weren't about to take an uncontrolled dive down the last of the stairs.

And--irony of ironies--as if the gods were taking with one hand and offering a pittance as compensation--the Bardic Gift.
This I think I have learned: where there is love, the form does not matter, and the gods are pleased. This I have observed: what occurs in nature, comes by the hand of nature, and if the gods did not approve, it would not be there.--p. 279
