    Vati, the Shape of Wisdom, wasn’t born knowing everything.She gathered her wisdom slowly, over time—bit by bit—always checking to see if what she knew was still true. At first, learning didn’t excite her. To be honest, she thought it was dull. She would’ve much rather chatted with Gurumin or watched Kenko perform his dazzling flips
