And I don't just mean the meat and bones that we can see with our eyes. There are plenty of wizards who have tried to do little more than move flesh and bone and wound up a repulsive smear on the ground. Surely there must be something more, something we can't see with our own eyes. But if we can't see it with our eyes, how would I go about finding. A perplexing puzzle indeed. . .

But now, now that I'm aware that her increase in weight is caused by the growth of a child. . . the growth of my child. . . her beauty is presented to me in a completely different light.
