Yeah. She wasn't trying to kill us or anything. I actually found out a couple years ago that she had her assistant running back and forth from Dublith to the island to make sure we were ok.

The two of us already had pretty decent foundation, but that didn't mean we understood anything. I was eight, I only thought I did. That month sucked, but we wouldn't have learned anything if she'd just told us. Sometimes it's better to just experience it.
