Well your 'First Sight' stories demonstrate how well you can communicate with very few words. I was expecting a longer epilogue to finish up this story and was surprised (I should not have been) to find this short little jewel. You applied your mastery to wrap the story up and setup the future in just a few words.

Kudos on the entire story as your first multi-chapter effort. But as others have said the epilogue was the icing on the cake. Well done.
