/* /*]] */ d13_seedling2 The dying woman had been knifed by one of the scalie guards as she’d tried to escape
“Should I end it for her?” Ryan asked, hand on his panga.
At the sound of his voice, the woman’s eyes opened. For several long heartbeats she gazed blindly into space. Then she moved her head and her eyes locked on Ryan’s face. “You,” she finally whispered.
Her hand spidered up her chest to her throat and gripped a square metal pendant. “Take,” she commanded, her eyes burning into Ryan’s good one. “Open. Rona said to find you. Died long back.
Quest. Look after.” Her breathing was becoming faster and more shallow.
Slowly Ryan opened the locket and found that it contained two thingsa tiny ringlet of blond hair and a picture, a faded, pale brown portrait.
“Who is it?” he asked, even though he knew what the answer was going to be.
“Your son, Ryan Cawdor. It’s your son.”
