Elizabeth Milton: "I cannot take credit for John's Paradise Lost."
Aurora: "Yes, Elizabeth, that is true. Yet, you provide the inception for his next piece of work."
Elizabeth Milton: "Your name is Aurora? Aurora, I am not planning on writing any poetry."
Aurora: "I know. Pay attention to me, regardless. You will basically conceive the next epic poem."
Elizabeth Milton: "I think a similar title would be nice for the next one - Paradise Regained."
Aurora: "You will envisage this poem. You will help write it. The poem will be published soon."
Elizabeth Milton: "I couldn't. How would I write this? I am a mother. I am not an author."
Aurora: "Do not sell yourself short, Elizabeth. I know as a woman you may lack self-confidence."
Elizabeth Milton: "Forgive me. I don't know what some of your words mean, like self con..."
Aurora: "Correct. I am using terminology that might be more suited for the twentieth century."
Elizabeth Milton: "Another confusing matter: She demanded John give a piece of flesh."
Aurora: "Yes, this woman will figure it out and return. Both she and I will need a piece from you."
Elizabeth Milton: "So, she will threaten us once more? To protect my children, I'll submit."
Aurora: "I am sorry you have to go through that ordeal. Yet, I want to ask for an additional favor."
Elizabeth Milton: "Proceed, Aurora."
Aurora: "Have you had any prophecies, dreams, or visions that someone like me would come?"
Elizabeth Milton: "Yes, you are to go to the land from whence the Jews escaped, to meet..."
Aurora: "Please continue. Remember, you are helping people with your gifts and your sacrifice."
Elizabeth Milton: "See someone called the Manifestation, then more back in time, a girl."
Aurora: "Elizabeth, I have learned while wise to have humility, you can be proud of yourself too."
Elizabeth Milton: "Kind words. I will delay the other woman. I pray a safe journey for you."
