“- Em termos técnicos, nunca cheguei a viver - respondeu ele, com uma expressão melancólica, que rapidamente deu lugar a um ar mais reservado. Já deixara escapar mais do que devia. Felizmente, ela pareceu perceber isso pelo rosto dele e não fez mais perguntas.”

Respirou fundo e continuou - Guio as almas através das terras perdidas e protejo-as dos demónios. Revelo-lhes a verdade, e depois deixo-as aonde elas têm de ir.”
― Claire McFall, Ferryman
