For Luc, life began seven years ago. It began on a bus, by the hills, beneath a black sky, with no one at his side but his sister, Cora.
His world is mundane, routine, and perfectly adequate. At work, he teaches, and at home, he takes care of Cora...
Is not short pain well borne that brings long ease
And lays the soul to sleep in quiet grave?
Sleep after toil, port after stormy seas,
Ease after war, death after life, does greatly please.
— Edmund Spenser, from The Faerie Queene
