"That's what I've always heard. That they grow quicker than you can imagine." He likes the idea though, of watching his little girl grow up. He thinks this time -- that'll happen. The Maker wouldn't put them through that pain a second time, would he? She's already so much bigger than little Cai was -- that has to count for something doesn't it?

"I'll have to find a way to take her with me to meet all my troops." He imagines a little girl perched on his shoulders, shouting at soldiers to keep their shields up.

He likes that image.
