Monologue: migrants and magi...THEN
"The journey has been rigorous – though grateful for servants and beasts to carry my possessions, the roads are rough and unforgiving. I was relieved beyond words to reach my destination – following a star, my trade, my belief and my skill – to finally arrive and be received by the surprised family. A young boy, eyes twinkling and bright with curiosity and grace, mother tired but welcoming and kind, father strong and good-natured. The travelling with my companions had been worth every step, every callous and every night away from my wife. We now have a long journey back, but I know I will see my homeland again."
