Unhurried, he approached the girl and looked down upon her sorry state. He saw the Path she had walked and would later walk again. He saw how the twisting and winding of this Path would baffle her.

“What's the good of a story that ain't got a happy endin'?" the girl demanded, crossing her arms. Leo considered. "Maybe it does have a happy ending. At least, when it's actually complete. I mean, this part of it is sad. But maybe something good will come from it still? I suppose you have to read all the legends together to know for sure, but I don't know all of them.

"I'd like to know that story someday.” InspirationalLegendsHappy EndingsHappy EndingAnne Elisabeth StenglVeiled RoseRose Red Book:Veiled Rose Source: Veiled Rose

But that doesn't mean we've gone astray.” LifeInspirationalLossDarknessFailure Book:Golden Daughter Source: Golden Daughter
