"Please do not feel this way, Mariya," Isolvelle answered consolingly, "We are all of us the victims and the heirs of fate which has dealt us a great many blows but has left us a thousand gifts to share," she pressed her eyes tight a moment before she interrupted her own lethargic process of thought, "I am sorry--these proverbs and adages are all so empty of meaning or substance. In truth, we are left to seek meaning in what remains of the world when the dust has settled and the fires are all burned out--that is, I think, all we can do in the face of great loss. But please know I will be a friend to you if ever you are in need of one."

"Oh of course. There's the Starry Sept, of course. It's so beautiful, and that's where the Faith had its headquarters, before Baelor the Blessed built the Great Sept in Kings Landing," Mariya suggested. "We could head towards that?"
