    Summary

    “I remember my son learning to walk. It was in eighty-one, when we were still living in that apartment on Rue de Graveil. Eolio was ten months old. He was holding onto the edge of the sofa, barely moving his feet, and I sat there watching the neurons in his brain forge connections, watching his muscles learn the patterns of movement. It was the most mesmerizing thing I had ever seen.
    And now, I am watching you. Watching the patterns being erased. Watching the neurons die, one by one, and the muscles forget what they were ever meant for. It’s the same process, Beldaruit, just in reverse. And just as spellbinding. I cannot look away.”
