Chapter 252

• Savvy
• I sat there, my mind numb, my eyes widened open, and I waited for Pa. Bale to do his task. Pedro has come, as well as Glassy Rain, who was at the Winter Q when it all happened.
• My cousin placed his soothing palm on my shoulder while I sat there beside Terona. I have changed his clothes to a clean one, and there I have laid him on the bed. He had drifted into unconsciousness after he had thrown up, and now I felt this would be the end if I didn't act fast.
