Epilogue
Human societies exist for the benefit of those who are willing to live by its rules. When the rules, be they explicitly coded as laws or operate in the guise of morals imposed by peer pressure, begin to interfere to an unacceptable degree with that most basic of relationship, man to woman, then sanctuaries like the Island will appear.
Some, like Mark and Cathy, survive in the outside world but will search for a better place where they can simply be themselves, accepted for who they are and what they believe in. Others like Luisa must be shown they need not reject what lies within, that they are not alone in their struggle to resolve what they have been taught to what they feel in their souls. And for those like Elise who trust to fate, they discover destiny can bring happiness.
