One of the things that is a constant feature in THE SPARK is the song that runs through Dee’s head. There’s not a lot of information out there about that song, but here’s a page from a 2062 book of folk and children’s songs collected by the Confederation Folkways Commission that might shed some light on it. The lyrics, especially the last verse, seem to come from the 2040s and the Last War.

Dee’s grandmother, who taught her the song, would have been a child at right around this time.
