"It is hard for me to express what extraordinary praise Eureka's reply carried: <voker.> Why do we shorten the words most precious to us?" -- Mycroft Canner, narrator of Too Like the Lightning by Ada Palmer (2016, Tom Doherty Associates)

[In the story, "voker" refers to somebody who has a vocation -- a calling -- not merely a job or a profession.]
