Sophia Conway
I am a door to pass through, not a final destination,” said Death after much time had passed, “a moment and not a lifetime. The road leads on beyond me; it is a path we all must take, but it stretches far further than you would ever believe.
Sophia Conway, His Last Companion

Louise Lacaille
Tears pooled in his eyes. Light or dark, awake and asleep, the scenes were the same. Busy streets that by dawn would be charred rubble and molten ash. Men with briefcases, waving goodbye to their wives, who would never return. Mothers kissing the foreheads of sleeping children who would never waken. For so it would always be in a universe where the Megaton was Lord.
Louise Lacaille, The Time Gene: Book One of The Immortal Cosmos series
