“Post holer for digging posts,” River smiled gently.
Simon looked up into his sister’s calm and accepting face and then down at the clamouring crowd.
He wouldn’t really mind being burnt; it would erase forever the cold consciousness of being alone. The pain of being cut from their parents’ hearts and minds would be banished and River would no longer be hurt. His fears and worries would disappear into the smoke and ashes; there would be nothing but everlasting peace.
His decision made, Simon stepped up onto the pyre and wound his arms around his sister. “Light it,” he said.
