The problem was the liars. They said she could do anything she set her mind to, they told her she should shoot for the moon because if she missed she's be among the stars, they made movies tricking her into thinking she could achieve heroic things. All lies. Because she was born to answer phones in call centers, to carry bags to customers' cars, to punch a clock, to measure her life in smoke breaks. To think otherwise was insane.

And it was greater than anything he could dream of, greater than discovering a golden city in the deepest jungles of the lands in the west. The king of the menfolk, cousin to gods, in Eric's castle...hidden as a polyp in a jar.
