AssociatingSecond Paragraph
800Cornelius approves the end of the story. All things in their rightful place, as long as there are enough places to go around. That's the business of the Hierophant, isn't it? To recognise the chain in its full complexity?
900Cornelius is intrigued by the end [...] Death itself repealed, rebuked, revised? What is that but a Judgement toppled backwards [...]? And if one (or several) may be countermanded by a Youthful Naturalist, then mightn't others be reformed by an entire city [...]?
1000Cornelius is intrigued but troubled by [...]the story. A success against the laws and powers: very good. But to do it in such a way that the finished state is never reached? [...] He does not care for the struggle. [...] you've given him a great deal to think about.
