“Destiny. I’d been kidding myself that I could escape it. By accepting Smith’s proposition, in that empty interview room all those years before, I had chosen a path. While I’d tried to jump sideways onto another, it had led me back to the same point. All that I had done was to delay the inevitable. All that I could do now was to walk the path I had chosen. To the bitter end. And there, sitting beside Peter, I could so no end but a bitter one. At that moment it seemed to me that I was trapped. Not but Smith but by destiny. A destiny that would condemn me to live and re-live these agonies, until the journey was complete.”
