Elaia + future, marriage and kids
“I nod. “Thousands of horses, wagons, and Tribesmen head out at once. In case anyone does track us to Nur, they’ll lose our trail. Some of those caravans will head north. We find one willing to shelter us. We hide among them and make our way to Kauf before winter snows. A tribal trader and his sister.”
“Sister?” She crosses her arms. “We look nothing alike.”
“Or wife, if you prefer.” I raise an eyebrow at her, unable to resist. A blush rises in her cheeks and blooms down her neck. I wonder if it goes any lower.
Stop, Elias.” - A Torch Against The Night
“When I turn to Mamie Rila, she’s eyeing Laia and grinning.
“Good hips,” Mamie says. “You’ll have many children. But can she make you laugh?” Mamie waggles her eyebrows.” - A Torch Against The Night
“For a moment I can see what we could have had: Laia and her books and patients, and me and a school that taught more than death and duty. A little one with gold eyes and glowing brown skin. The white in Laia’s hair one day, and the way her eyes will mellow and deepen and grow wiser” - A Reaper At The Gates, Sabaa Tahir
“The magic will allow you to quell the jinn. But you must leave your old self behind. You are Elias no more. You are the Soul Catcher. You are mine. I know what your heart desires. It can never be.”
I try desperately to push those wishes away. So stupid. So small. A house and a bed and a garden and laughter and a future.” - A Reaper At The Gates
“And yet the Soul Catchers are not isolated. They speak to each other. One woman smiles when a flame child comes running toward her, transforming into a human just before the jinn scoops him up.
They have family. Partners.
“An image of Laia and me in a house, making a life together, flashes through my mind. Could it be possible?” - A Reaper At The Gates.
“Damn you, girl.” Cook grabs me by the shoulder. “Listen to me. One day, you will have children. And you will learn that you would rather suffer a thousand torments than let one hair on their heads be harmed. Give me this gift.” - A Reaper At The Gates
