'Good times indeed, but like everything else they do come to an end. Whatever begins afterwards isn't always good unfortunately, but we can't choose not to deal with what cards life hands us. I can't tell if you're lucky or unfortunate to have had the early experience.'
He eyed Anders carefully across the table, as if he were appraising a gem before a sale.
