The entry of Joshua into the ranks of the Larkinsons marked a seminal moment in the history of the Larkinson Clan.
For the first time in the existence of the entire Larkinson line, the clan members recognized an outsider as a fully-fledged Larkinson without any caveats!
Even though Joshua was already dating Jannzi and could have become a Larkinson through marriage, Ves had forestalled this slow and gradual process and turned him into a Larkinson right away!
Joshua was very happy about his elevation. For the first time in his life, he truly felt he belonged to the family and clan he admired from afar and up close! The last point of separation between him and the Larkinsons were no longer in place.
From now on, he would no longer go by Joshua King.
From now on, he was Joshua Larkinson, an upstanding member of the Larkinson Clan!
