Lev has found a new travel companion: CyFi (Cyrus Finch). CyFi tells him is view on running away: “You got it in your heart to run from unwinding, ain’t no one can tell you it’s the wrong thing to do, even if it is against the law. The good Lord wouldn’t have put it in your heart if it wasn’t right. You listenin’, Fry?” (121). CyFi won’t tell Lev where he is heading, but that doesn’t bother Lev because “Destination implies a future” (122).
