Garrett
gazed at the door. Somewhere on the other side of it was his dad and the life
he had always known, a hard life, but one they shared. Here in this little room
stood the King’s men, pointing him to the promise of a new life, but a new life
without the only family he had. The choice was a stark one, black and white
with no shades of gray. There could be no compromises, no middle ground. He had
seen the King, whatever his dad might think. He had been in both the light and
the darkness, and he knew which was good and which was not. Knowing that, he
also knew which choice he had to make. Yet that choice hurt more than any
physical pain he had ever known.
