Page 49 of Lady of Avalon


  A new age is coming, when Avalon shall seem as distant to them as Faerie does now. This girl who rules now upon the Tor will use her powers to try to change that destiny, and the one who comes after her will do the same. They will fail—even the Defender, when he comes, will conquer only for a little while. How could it be otherwise, when their lives are but moments in the life of the world?

  It is their dreams that will survive, for a dream is immortal—as am I. And though the world should change entirely, as its events have their reflections here, so there are places where a little of the light of the Otherworld shines through to the world of men. And that light shall not be lost to humankind so long as men still seek solace in this holy earth called Avalon.
