“What made the Badlands bad when you had food and water? Watching the sky turn first gold and then russet in the west; watching it turn purple and then starshot black in the east. She watched the days end with increasing dread: the thought of another endless night, the three of them huddled together while the wind whined and twined its way through the rocks and the stars glared down.”

“Ich ziele nicht mit der Hand; wer mit der Hand zielt, hat das Gesicht seines Vaters vergessen. Ich ziele mit dem Auge. Ich schieße nicht mit der Hand; wer mit der Hand schießt, hat das Gesicht seines Vaters vergessen. Ich schieße mit dem Verstand. Ich töte nicht mit meiner Waffe; wer mit seiner Waffe tötet, hat das Gesicht seines Vaters vergessen. Ich töte mit dem Herzen.”

“Time flies, knells call, life passes, so hear my prayer. Birth is nothing but death begun, so hear my prayer. Death is speechless, so hear my speech. This is Jake, who served his ka and his tet. Say true. May the forgiving glance of S’mana heal his heart. Say please. May the arms of Gan raise him from the darkness of this earth. Say please. Surround him, Gan , with light. Fill him, Chloe, with strength. If he is thirsty, give him water in the clearing. If he is hungry, give him food in the clearing. May his life on this earth and the pain of his passing become as a dream to his waking soul, and let his eyes fall upon every lovely sight; let him find the friends that were lost to him, and let every one whose name he calls call his in return. This is Jake, who lived well, loved his own, and died as ka would have it. Each man owes a death. This is Jake. Give him peace.”
