Chang:
[referring to Maria]
Charming, isn't she?
Robert Conway:
Ah, yes, charming.
Chang:
Your brother seems quite fascinated by her.
Robert Conway:
Well, why not? She's an attractive young woman.
Chang:
Young? She arrived here in 1888. She was 20 at the time. She was on her way to join her betrothed, when her couriers lost their way in the mountains. The whole party would have perished without for meeting with some of our people.
Robert Conway:
Amazing. She still doesn't look over 20. When is she likely to grow old in appearance?
Chang:
Oh, not for years. Shangri-La will keep her youthful indefinitely.
Robert Conway:
Suppose she should leave?
Chang:
Leave Shangir-La? Ha ha, that's not likely, you couldn't drive her out.
Robert Conway:
No, I mean about her appearance. If she should leave the valley, what would happen?
Chang:
Oh... she'd quickly revert in appearance to her actual age.
Robert Conway:
Huh... Ah, it's weird.
