“Gabriel says, “Van told me you were dead. Nesbitt described your body, your wound. He had the Fairborn and I knew you wouldn’t have let him take it if you were alive.I knew you were dead. There was no doubt in my mind.” He glances at me but looks away again across the lake. “I wept. I wept a lot, Nathan. And I had this idea that I’d go and find your body and hold it to mine and not let it go, ever. I would stay with you, starve, but at least I’d die holding you. That’s all I thought was left to me.””
