Winter Gardens (Sanctuary)

Her response showed great wisdom that wasn’t often seen in a world that moved by so quickly. Patience was a virtue many no longer had. Cali wasn’t frustrated by her struggles. Instead she gave them meaning. His offer to help had been a genuine one given in earnest, and it hadn’t been refused, but she was also okay with taking her time. Anton admired that.

”I’m an opera singer and teacher of music at the University,” he told her. Outside of Opera, he wasn’t terribly well known. It was a niche group, particularly in the case of Baroque Opera which was his specialty. ”So many of my students have always wanted to find the quick and easy way. They lack patience and sometimes don’t see that it’s the journey and not the destination that’s the worthier part.” he gave her a smile. ”Don’t lose that.”

Cali was curious about him though. He wasn’t really sure what to say about that. Rather than his singing ability, he wasn’t remarkable. Well - besides the whole being Orpheus reborn thing. ”I can,” he confirmed. ”it can be dangerous though. Much like your gift I’m assuming. If you push too hard something can break. I learned control at a young age. But it’s a responsibility to make sure I use it in a way that doesn’t hurt others.” he shrugged and chuckled. ”But you said you were curious about me and not just my gifts. How can I sate your curiousity?”
