Lyra could never fully believe that Will was gone.
She had been with him for such a short period of time, yet she knew him as
well as she did herself. It was Dust that brought them together . . .and
Dust that took them apart.
She was getting older, in her teens now, and while she still was the same
incredible child she'd always been, she had to tone it down at her new
school. Still out of Jordan College, she occasionally was visited by the
master, but her ties were now severed with her previous, carefree world.
She missed that world.
She missed that world.
