1.14 Time for reflection

Jace stood at the head of the table and reflected.

Kyra Lilly grew up and accepted her brother's starter house across town. It wasn't large, but it was big enough for her and her new addition.

Dean was released a week later from the hospital, he was shook up, but alive. In this time he also aged into elder and but decided against retiring from his Star New Anchor position at the local station.

Haleigh was also teetering on elderhood. Having worked a part time job her entire adult life, she could not rely on a pension but knew she really didn't need to anymore. For Haleigh, watching the children age was enough. She had almost accomplished her lifetime want. Now that she was retiring and the kids were grown, it was time to finish it up that guitar skill.

Isaiah finally entered high school. He did not particularly enjoy school, he'd prefer to be at home creating works of art, but it helped pass the day along.

Jace stood back and watched his family crowd around him at the table. Like many times before, the noise makers whistled and the family yelled. He closed his eyes and blew out the candles.

Now he was going to do something awesome with his life.

((Gen one complete))
