or the first time in years, that night, I dreamed about the cavern and the passageway leading away from it. There was someone in the cavern with me, though—just behind me and to one side, watching over my shoulder and whispering in my ear.

“You see . . .” My mother’s voice. “The demon’s right in front of you now. Naked. Don’t go.”

“Don’t you see the light, though? At the end of the passage, like the moon? I can reach it.”

“You reached for love once, Eduardo, and killed your father. You reached for power once, too, and killed an old man who’d done you no harm. Then you reached for freedom, and killed Madhu. Stay here with me, where it’s safe.”

“But I didn’t reach for the baby, and it died, too.”

“Stay.”

“I’ve already sent out the probe.”

“And you see—death has followed it already.”
