Alas, it is the thoroughly exciting (not) book Corporations and Financial Markets Law, 7th edition, by Paul Redmond. I am supposed to be studying right now...

Exodus 11:1 NIV
Infant Ebby is a smol, out-of-control firebending terror. It's a good thing she's also quite cute.

May the road rise up to meet you.
May the wind be always at your back.
May the sun shine warm upon your face,
And rains fall soft upon your fields.
And until we meet again,
May God hold you in the palm of His hand.

(Well, it's hard to call a fanfic 'nearest', especially if you have 100 or so tabs open, and it's kind of hard to find the 56th page. Chapter, maybe, except that most don't have that many.)

Upon opening the book and reading the fifth line of page 56, I do not think it's entirely appropriate for the forum so I'll try page 42 line 7 instead.

"Oh no. The wind, the dirt, the solar radiation. It's a sun-scorned"
