   Summary

   The road has taught Freya endurance, discipline, and how to survive being needed. It has taught Varka, among other things, how to carry too much without complaint. But a temporary refuge in the city leaves them facing something far more difficult than battle: silence, tenderness, and the unbearable possibility of wanting more. Some wounds close cleanly. Others only deepen when the world finally grows quiet.
