Summary
Nicky and Nile have some time to themselves while Joe and Andy are out on a mission; Nicky, always the quiet one, finds himself willingly telling his new family member the story of how he came to realize that he loved Joe, the man whom he had been taught to hate:
Because it was conviction that brought him to the gates of Jerusalem, a thousand years ago. And it is that conviction which is shaken over and over again with the kindness, the strength, the absolute virtue of Yusuf Al-Kaysani. This unwavering love introduces a period of a thousand years where Niccolò (who becomes Nico who becomes Nicky) discovers time and again that most truth in this world deserves to be questioned.
-Except of course the truth of how much Nicky loves Joe.
