“Menuda al nacer, seguía siéndolo ahora, casi a los dos años, delgada de brazos y piernas. Cada vez que Bedap la alzaba, sentía un temor indefinido, una especie de repulsión al tocar aquellos brazos, tan frágiles que hubiera podido quebrarlos con una simple torsión de la mano. Quería mucho a Pilun, fascinado por aquellos ojos velados y grises, conquistado por la confianza ilimitada de la niña, pero cada vez que la tocaba, sabía conscientemente, como no lo había sabido antes, qué es la atracción de la crueldad, por qué el fuerte atormenta al débil. Y en consecuencia —aunque no hubiera podido decir por qué «en consecuencia»— comprendía también algo que nunca había tenido para él mucho sentido, o nunca le había interesado: los sentimientos paternales.”

“Four things do not come back: the spoken word, the sped arrow, the past life, and the neglected opportunity.”
