"You would be correct on both counts, cousin." Eli says, turning to look at Iason.
"I made foolish mistakes tonight." Eli says. "I have alienated Veronica, though I have no idea how to deal with the knowledge of having a child. I would make a terrible father, considering my own childhood.
And I made the mistake of going to Polaria tonight. I found that my father had replaced my mother and I...and I did not take it well." Eli admits.
"I know that this is not our home, but I cannot help wondering what I will do if I could never return to the place of my birth, my childhood. During the battle with the other travelers...my powers were turned back upon me. When they were my fears, both open and hidden, were revealed to me in stark detail. My father despises me for never being the son he wanted.
I always swore to myself that I would never make a child of mine feel that way, and I have managed, in just minutes to do Veronica what my father has always done to me. I did not meant to read her mind but...she thinks so loudly and she wears her heart upon her sleeve, as they say." Eli says, no small amount of guilt in his voice.
"She reminds me of my mother, Veronica does."
