“You cannot change what you are, only what you do.”



“So Lyra and her daemon turned away from the world they were born in, and looked toward the sun, and walked into the sky.”

Kimber Silver I'm happy you liked this story, Poppy! :-)


Todd Parker I'm pretty sure it's the opposite of the truth. You can't change what you do, because what is done is in the past and the past cannot be changed. Not only can you change what you are, you can't *stop* what you are from changing, because nothing is static. Everything changes, all the time; to persist is fundamentally to change.
