Nathan Wentworth: Kwan
Quotes
-
Arushka : Kwan, tell him the legend.
Kwan : It was in my parent's parent's time. Legend says it was in the greening known as 2.
Noah Daniels : 2. And, uh, what did you mean by thundering?
Kwan : Shaking and a terrible fire. Then, the death of the world followed by years of cold.
Noah Daniels : Yeah, that's it. The Nemesis Comet. And you say your family survived.
Kwan : 50 greenings ago, our tribe made a great journey to find Haven, where the grass and trees had started to grow again.
Noah Daniels : Greenings. And you said your time was...
Geneva : The 8-5 greening. Yes.
Noah Daniels : The 85th greening. So if the comet was in the second greening, a greening is a year. So that makes this 2085.
Arushka : That means nothing to us.
Noah Daniels : All right, all right. Let's just call this the 8-5 greening and-and leave it at that. The point is that I live in North Col in 2020, so I've jumped ahead... 65 years. 65 greenings.
