For every joy, there is a price to be paid.
The only thing that is humiliating is helplessness.
ABASI
"You...think there might be, one day?" Abasi asked, his voice hopeful, though he already knew it would be more complicated than he'd like. Already here he'd carved out a space for himself, found someone that made him happier than he'd been before...yet he missed Egypt like a part of himself, like a missing half of his heart.
To be in a bubble...both a blessing and a curse, he thought. Allowed to continue safely with your own tasks as a community, yet so isolated from any outside supplies or help. "Amalia...she is a devotee of the Old Gods. You did not raise her in your beliefs? A child showing such disrespect to a parent in Egypt would have been chastised." Abasi was still going to see Amalia for help with his prayers, but he rather disapproved of her apparent disobedience with her adoptive mother.

If his heart rules him,
his conscience will soon take the place of the rod.
