Lona's parents were not pleased that their remote ancestress was taking a personal interest in their daughter's future. "You shouldn't encourage instability like that," Jai complained. "She wants to go gallivanting off, without a thought for the future."
"There's nothing unstable about wanting to take a job in space," Lunzie retorted. "That's the basic of galactic enterprise."
"Well, we won't hear of it. And with the greatest of respect, Lunzie, let us raise our child our way, please?"
Lunzie simmered silently at the reproval, but Lona gave her the thumbs up behind her father's back. Evidently, the girl was not going to mention Lunzie's gift. Neither would she. It would be a surprise to all of them when she left one day, but Lunzie refused to feel guilty. It wasn't as though the signs weren't pointed out to them.
After three days more, Lunzie had had enough of her descendents. She announced at dinner that night that she would be leaving.
"I thought you would stay," Melanie wailed. "We've got plenty of room, Lunzie. Don't go. We've hardly had a chance to get acquainted. Stay at least a few more days."
"Oh, I can't, Melanie. Tee's got to get back to the Ban Sidhe, and so do I. I do appreciate your offer, though," Lunzie assured her. "I promise to visit whenever I'm in the vicinity. Thank you so much for your hospitality. I'll carry the memories of your family with me always."
