Joe, Mary, Leah, Eve. I lived with the selfish attitude that they were my possessions, my dolls. Their blood, their memories. All mine. But before I got to their house I saw Nell, the Pale Girl I’d seen with the Dark Man, Lowen. I noticed her because she was watching me. No one saw me unless I let them see me. But she saw me. Lowen was nowhere in sight. Couldn’t smell him or hear him either. Nell seemed to know me. She knew the monster I was. She had no fear of me at all. She smiled at me. She waved at me to follow her. She turned from me. She went skipping away. I followed her. She didn’t have Blood Vivicanti speed or strength. But she was elusive. She could hide herself from me. If I lost her, she would appear from behind a house or tree, far ahead, waving for me to follow her farther. She led me through Idyllville. She led me through the forest, around tree and rock. She led me to the cliff where it all began. The place where Wyn had saved me from the two men. The place where I’d fallen and broken.
