THIS WAS NOT SLEEP. Silas was walking with Bea along the cliffs near the lighthouse in Lichport. She stopped and turned to Silas and kissed him.

He could feel her lips against his and her arms about him. He put his hand on the back of her head, just above her neck, and drew her even closer. He could feel that her hair was wet. She wrapped a leg around his and they fell back together and did not stop falling.

Silas didn't even feel them hit the surface of the sea far below the lighthouse.

He looked up through the water. Lights moved above them. Their limbs were still entwined, and Bea kept kissing him, even though his mouth was open now as they sank down together. She pressed her lips to his neck, his cheek, his eyes.

Silas did not feel them come to rest on the sea bottom. But he could see Beatrice, her face pulled back a little from his. She smiled and he heard her words, bubbling at him through the murky water.

"Welcome home, my love. Welcome home."

LEDGER

Those familiar with our Old Northern Literature will be well aware how often the forms of the dead were believed to be seen again on earth. And there is an instance, in the old Sagas, where not only did shade after shade revisit the pale glimpses of the moon, to the long and fearful disquiet of a neighbor, but where their often-comings could only be stopped by formal process of law; by use of which they were, however, at last driven away.

I have neither eye to see, nor tongue to speak here, but as the house is pleased to direct me.
