“And, in the darkness, David closed his eyes as all that was lost was found again.”
“. . . For a lifetime was but a moment in that place, and each man dreams his own heaven.And in the darkness David closed his eyes, as all that was lost was found again.”
“His eyes were closing again, all of their own accord, so that he lay in red, pain-filled darkness. It occured to him that he was dying and he didn’t care. ‘He’s alive!’ Blue said again ‘He’s breathing!’ ‘I can’t see him breathing.”
“Up close, I see that his eyes are brown. Dark, dark brown. Nearly black.Sinful.”
“Dustfinger closed his eyes and listened.He was home again.”
“No, all that David could think about was the head of the deer-girl, for her face rubbed against his as they rode, her warm blood smeared his cheek, and he saw himself reflected in the dark green mirrors of her eyes.”
