There were more Ageless growing up in International Falls than just me, Rosalie, and Rosalind. More than there should have been. Only one-in-a-million of us are Ageless, and International Falls numbered in the thousands. Me alone was outside the curve. Me and the girls? We BROKE the curve. Then there were the Arnam of Rainy Lake. And… others. I can’t say how many, even here and now. Official secrets, doncha know? But there was a whole group of us Ageless who grew up together, stronger, faster, and more durable than most people. And as time went on, we got all the shiny side effects of the Peloran Treatments that made us just like the Peloran. I didn’t notice how abnormal that was at the time. Because it was normal to me.
