| "Lidij and I were brought up Jewish," he explained. "We see no reason to go back on our beliefs just because there are Greek Gods involved in our lives. If there are Greek Gods, why not our God?" He smiled. "Hannukah is a period of time to remember how the Temple in Jerusalem was purified and the wicks of the menorah burned for eight days, even though there was only enough sacred oil for one day's lighting. For the past seven days Lidij and I have lit the Hannukiyah and followed tradition. Would you like to join us this evening and light the final candle?" | |

| Violet shook her head and backed up onto her bed more. She didn't want to intrude on their special day. | |

| "Hannukah is for the whole family," Pyotr tried. "You are our family now, Violet. Will you not?" | |

| Pyotr carefully lit the shamash, and closed Violet's hand around it, keeping his own around hers as he directed her to the first candle, beginning to sing in a strange tongue. | |

| Lidija reached out and squeezed Pietro's hand gently, then released it as he recovered whilst they sang the last verse. | |
