Forty: 3052 AD

How important is a place? A place is just a place, you say. And I tell you: Not so! You are either of a place, or you are not. If you are, then it is in your heart and flesh and bones; you know it without thought, and it knows you. You are comfortable together. You are partners. You know all the quirks and bad habits and how to sidestep them. If you are an outsider . . . 
It is the difference between new and old boots. You can wear both, but new boots can be trouble if you don’t have time to break them in.
Blackworld was new boots for my father and the Iron Legion.
