Summary
However– quite absurdly– it’s not just the danger that had stuck with him. Sometimes, he’d close his eyes expecting a reminder of those empty, hungry sockets, and instead be supplied with visions of a human figure, hidden by cloak and movement so that the only true clarity gleaned is in the quick confidence of his swing. When one is assisted in some way—when one is rescued from something they’re so unequipped to handle, it’s natural to be thankful, but, absurdly, Eiland finds himself just as caught up in the broadness of his rescuer’s shoulders as the kindness in the act itself.
