“Valley to Cross The valley I must cross under the bridges that were burned troubled water beats against my heart while I’m trying to be heard. The sky turns dark on a full moon night It’s God that lights my way my legs are weak, but my heart strong I’ll walk to meet the day. There’s a mountain in the distance my legs tremble with each step how can I get to you Dear God? exhausted there I slept. Awaken on the mountain top through tears, a view to behold keeping our faith, not easy God’s story had been told.”

“In the Age of Legends," Moiraine went on, "some Aes Sedai could fan life and health to flame if only the smallest spark remained. Those days are gone, though-perhaps forever. So much was lost; not just the making of angreal. So much that could be done which we dare not even dream of, if we remember it at all. There are far fewer of us now. Some talents are all but gone, and many that remain seem weaker. Now there must be both will and strength for the body to draw on, or even the strongest of us can do nothing in the way of Healing. It is fortunate, that your father is a strong man, both in body and spirit. As it is, he used up much of his strength in the fight for life, but all that is left now is for him to recuperate. That will take time, but the taint is gone.”
