So what inspired this excerpt? Atlantis: Bearer of Fruit –
Book One – Chapter 15 – page 186.
His whole life,
Aedon had looked forward to the Day of Apaturia,
to the time he would finally be acknowledged as a true son. He had dreamt of
this day every night since he was a little boy. He had visions of Gilgamoeh
placing his arms around him and finally saying, “Welcome home, son.” He had dreams that Gilgamoeh had secretly
bought him gifts for every Day of
Apaturia from decades past, while he was growing up, and that he had saved
all those gifts. In his fantasy, the day that he was announced to be his son,
Gilgamoeh came forward rejoicing and presented him with a mountain of gifts
that was higher than even the dome of the Spiral
