Lavi remembered (as he did most everything) a book once, filled with the sort of tales and lore that ought to teach a lesson, but never did-- a tale of a king, granted a wish, and wished that everything he touched turned to gold.
Ultimately, this didn't turn out well, after he turned all his food into bars of the stuff, and his dear daughter into a statue of gold, but Lavi couldn't get past that first part.
To make everything that he touched brilliant, shining, everlasting. Never ravaged by time, unchanging. Frozen. And he'd be free to walk through the hallways of gold, never being anything but Lavi.
(But those are stories, and these are real.)
