They were stirring restlessly. Old Pendennis could hear the sussuration of movement, here, there, small pockets of impatience. Probably the children.

He tried to sit up and failed. Charleen’s arm eased him back down. “Rest, Grandsire.”

“I have a long time for that, my dear, and only moments for this. Charles? You’re still here?”

“Yes, Grandfather.”

“Don’t grieve for me. Because there will always be something of me in each of you, as there is something of all the others in me. A little bit of me, and of all the Old Ones, can go back with you. Or stay here forever.” Old Pendennis lay back, his voice suddenly, for one last moment, clear and firm. “Remember your heritage. Remember! You are human.”
