31 - 33[…] she takes up going into the Forgotten Quarter more often, visiting the places she knew when she was small. In the final dream, she is sitting beneath a silver tree […] She tells you that she has been glad of your company in the later decades of life. […]
34As you grow old, in the waning of your marriage, she goes more and more often to the Forgotten Quarter without you. She is communing, you think, with some memory you cannot access. She brings with her the last urchin girl. There is only one now.
35As time passes, she speaks more often of […] the whole dynasty from which she comes. […] You take on the responsibilities of her business, freeing her to study more intently the family tree […] She offers to draw yours as well.
