    Summary

    "You called it love," Dottore says.

    "Yes." Wind blows over the mountain range, pulling Baizhu's long, meticulously woven braid into disarray. Slips of silver peek through the coils of green. Color bleeding away, the way life bleeds red from a body, long after it has gone stiff and cold. "I loved him."

    "And me?"

    Even under the mellow spring sunshine, Baizhu's face is pale and ill. He gazes across the sea of tree-covered cliffs spread out before them, and the crashing roar of the waterfalls drown out the low, slow sound of his breathing.

    "I hardly know you."

    (OR: Zandik comes back from the dead.)
