For my extraordinary grandsons, Xay and Xio: This tale springs from the vibrant energy and limitless creativity you both possess. Xay, your spirit mirrors a fearless adventurer, transforming humble toy cars into magnificent dragons in grand, sweeping sagas. Xio, you embody the quiet strength found in familial affection, always seeking solace and courage in the embrace of those you cherish. Your contrasting yet harmonious natures, a testament to the boundless love you share, fill my heart with unending joy and amazement. May your imaginations forever soar, your bonds remain unbreakable, and the stunning world within and without your hearts always captivate you. To my remarkable son, who embodies Gama's sage wisdom and Papi's intrepid spirit: your steadfast presence is both our grounding force and our guiding light. This story is a heartfelt tribute to the profound love that binds us, the treasured moments we've shared, and the incredible journeys we continue to embark on, together, forever.
