“The truth …” the lord repeated, and leaned leaning over his charge, his hands still clasped behind his back. He had paused his circuit to face her for only a moment, resumed as he resumed speaking, “… is that it was never made. It is a lie—as is all this … .” He raised a finger to the twisted vaults of the Everhold above his head, to the neroflammes and the black stone of the carven roof. “Once, long ago, a star fell here—upon Halfnight,Halfnight, as you said. It made the crater where our King made his temple. This temple. That star—it was no star, of course, only a piece of stariron—was made in the death spasm of a proper star, a star which lived for perhaps half the life-age of this creation, born of a star that accompanied the birth of all. There are those who would have me believe that all this occurred so that I might stand here, now. That what happened happened because what is happening is happening. Does this not seem madness to you? All that time, all that … emptiness? And for what?”

“It is what is!” the abbot said. “They are all built in craters! All the Everholds! It is the way of things!”
