Charlie continues to soothe him, rocking him gently. "He did leave," He agreed, acknowledging the facts, "but not because he wanted or planned to... This is going to sound absurd, but it is the truth-I swear on Nan's head."

He lives with us in the blooming seasons of spring and summer, then retiring to rest in the late fall and winter when his power wanes. Normally, he has more time to say goodbyes than that... He wanted to tell you before he left. But he spent too much energy, and had to leave to recharge before he was supposed to go."
