    Summary

    The boy appeared no older than seven. His slight frame was draped in tattered rags, wrists and ankles bound with white bandages, sloppily applied. His sunset-hued hair hung in drenched, tangled clumps, saturated by the river's chill.

    Though he floated like a lifeless husk, his amber eyes remained wide open. Hauntingly vacant yet piercing, devoid of light, mirroring the hollow gaze of the Kaslana himself.

    Here, two souls long dead in spirit crossed paths.

    Kevin Kaslana stood and stared, then stared some more.

    His expression unchanging, he reached down with a gloved hand, unhurried, lifting the child by the scruff as if he was handling a drenched sodden feline.
