Whatever answer he gave, it would not diminish the daily suffering mortality gave him, each day creeping slowly toward the inevitable oblivion, another tiny piece of him dying. And yet, he returned her look with a smile. "Sweet Lady, the wonders never cease. I thought I had learned so much of humans by watching them from the shadows century after century, and now walking among them I find a new discovery with each passing day," he said, "And I can't wait to see which new things the next day will bring. Things to see and smell and taste and touch and do. It is a wonderland, Lady."
