Which for all intents and purposes is fine. The real problem is if all
clients only requested the first parts by default.

Though here at journey's end I lie 
  In darkness buried deep,          above all shadows rides the Sun
beyond all towers strong and high,    and the Stars forever dwell:
  beyond all mountains steep,       I will not say the Day is done,
                                      nor bid the Stars farewell.
