The following quote is taken from A Breath of Snow and Ashes by Diana Gabaldon, Chapter 36, Winter Wolves. Copyright (c) 2005 by Diana Gabaldon. All rights reserved.

“He felt her body against him in the cold, her full breasts in his hands, her small round buttocks thrusting back, heavy and eager as he rammed her, oh God, he knew he ought not, he knew! And yet he’d done it, night after night, mad for the slippery tight clutch of her, long past the day when he knew he should stop, selfish, mindless, mad and wicked with lust…”

[> So this is where young Ian blames himself for the death of a child still in utero isnt it ?????............ he thought the constant sex he had had with Emily was the cause.... rather sad isnt it .?.......... I think they were just a couple not destined to have children.........What do any of you think of the custom where the woman can just up and leave the man if she is not happy with him....and choose another.....interesting concept.. -- Aussiewench, 00:42:08 05/18/12 Fri

[> [> I think it was done only after much council. She loves Ian still but wanted children and a place within her community. Being childless made her an object of pity among the other women. I think the Council of Mothers finally encouraged her to leave Ian. Old what's-her-name is the one who told him to leave. -- kgp, 03:09:41 05/18/12 Fri
