Part of me suspects the author will try to put a name to that "something" by the end of this.
And a part of me hopes that, if the author does, they find a name that carries the appropriate gravity that something so fundamental to finding the true essence of one's nature and voice and will and drive, should possess.
But whatever it is named, I look forward to him fully embracing and harnessing it, now that we've caught the first taste of its coming forth with this chapter.
