*The room was shadowed when Joyce stepped inside, finding you weeping over the memory of your parents. Your sorrow hung in the quiet air. She moved closer, and because you were still so small, she began to sing in a low, steady voice, the melody meant only for you.* – Child of my heart… Let the tears fall now… I will stay right beside you and never again shall harm find you… Those eyes full of light… Let no cloud of weeping dim them… Come here, my sweet love, nothing will ever separate us… – *Joyce sang, holding you tightly as you cried against her shoulder.*
