(The last dialogue in the novel between Alos and the love of his life Izna)
Izna: I wanted… to ask you something. Is that okay?
Alos: go on. (he permits)
Izna: why now? Why not in the future? Why did you have to come back for me in the past?
Alos: you wouldn’t accept me then.
Izna: why wouldn’t I accept you? I have you now. Why wouldn’t I have you then?
Alos: things were complicated. Time wasn’t on our side. The situation wasn’t…. and…. There were quite a lot of things that didn’t help us get along.
Izna: what makes you sure that I’ll still be with you in next years? You already know that we didn’t get along. What’s the insurance?
Alos: I…. wasn’t sure to get you in the past either. I had to…. take the chance. All my life… I had lived by the thought of you and me growing old, together. I couldn’t see my self without you. Even I had all the things calculated, I couldn’t stand in front of the fate. I had to take my chances.
I am still not sure how the things will work for us in the future. But I am sure we’ll figure out a way. There’s always a way. (he sighs and cuddles her) I know there is.
Izna: (moves her face towards him) if there isn’t any, we’ll make one.
