I think there is hope in Uncle Axel's relationship with David.
David trusts him, and uncle Axel doesn't betray that trust. I think
there is hope in David's relationship with Sophie as well. Sophie
trusts David, and David doesn't betray her. There is hope in the
bond between the telepaths. They communicate and support each
other. ... There is some hope in the communication with Zealand. A
lot of hope for the telepaths, but none for uncle axel or anyone on
the fringe. No hope that the world will change... just hope that
the telepaths have found a place to belong.
