Maria V. Snyder: ""Lari," bisiknya. "Lari." "...

""Lari," bisiknya. "Lari." "Tidak, Rand," kataku, menyeka kotoran dari wajahnya. "Aku lelah berlari." "Maafkan aku, tolong." Dia mencengkeram tanganku ketika matanya memandangku dengan air mata kesakitan. "Kau dimaafkan." Dia menghela nafas sekali, lalu berhenti bernapas. Kilau di mata cokelatnya meredup. Aku menarik tudungnya di atas kepalanya."

Versi Bahasa Inggris

“Run,” he whispered. “Run.” “No, Rand,” I said, brushing the dirt from his face. “I’m tired of running.” “Forgive me, please.” He clutched my hand as his eyes beseeched me through tears of pain. “You’re forgiven.” He sighed once, then stopped breathing. The shine in his brown eyes dulled. I pulled his hood over his head.
