Above and Beyond

You might say there was always something in me that took me above and beyond. Literally.

But I was not prepared for the fate the monks gave me; Gyatso knew this, and gave me the childhood I deserved to the fullest extend of his power.

It was not enough – it was never enough – but I think fate wanted me to leave. Because, if I hadn't, I wouldn't have met them. And they were, inevitably, my childhood, and my destiny, and my future, in one.
