She might need help, Maegi answered in response to Mou's silent body language beside her. But no matter, they were well on their way, and it wasn't long before a voice came to her—Kigipigak?

A name? A prayer? Whoever spoke was not pale enough to show through the trees, and so she squinted, slowing her pace and moving cautiously forward. Stay here a moment, she said to her husband, then gave the children a gimlet look. Stay with your father.

Her tone would not be disobeyed, and once satisfied they were going nowhere, Maegi continued on a little faster, heart beginning to pick up pace. She didn't like it here; it reminded her too much of Blackfeather Woods, and she suddenly yearned for the sea—

Movement, and a flash of sun-dappled mahogany pelt. Same as. . .

Her mouth went dry; she was seeing ghosts. She had buried her son and yet here he was, and not a hair out of place. But—but wait.

No.

The trees began to spin around her, even as her gaze fixed firm on the figure just ahead.
