First Aid for Fairies And Other Fabled Beasts (2011)
““There is a Book. It is a Book that we centaurs and other fabled beasts have shared and guarded for many generations. It is a Book that contains all the questions, and all the answers, that anyone may ask in their life. And our peoples keep it safe, and ask it the questions that let us survive and thrive.
“But our elders have laid down rules. Our community only asks questions twice a year at the Winter and Summer Solstices. We are only allowed to ask three questions at a time, and the quest...ions must be in the interests of many, not just the questioner.”
“Why can’t you ask the questions all at once, or just read the whole book?” asked Helen.
Rona answered, “Because no one must get too much unearned or unlearned knowledge. Wisdom is found not only in the answers but also in the journey to find them. To know all your life’s answers too soon would give you too much power and not enough curiosity.”
