    Summary

    “I do not ask for much,” Shane murmurs, standing in front of the altar, surrounded by lit candles and nothing else inside the enclosed stone. His voice is soft, but it echoes all the same. “I only want him returned, in any way you could return him to me. If he’s alive, let me hold and love him for the rest of our remaining days. If he’s at the brink of fading, let me take care of him and nurse him back to health. And if he is… if he is dead, if you have taken him, then, at least, give me a body to bury. Let all my waiting mean something, please. Please. Please—”
