Subject: QOTD for Tuesday, September 6, 2022

The following quotation is from Written In my Own Heart’s Blood by Diana Gabaldon. Copyright 2014 All Rights Reserved. Chapter 85 Long Road Home


He could still hear the sound when the tomahawk caved in the Abenaki’s skull. He could still feel it, too, in the bones of his arms, in the bursting pain of his wound.

Dimly, he realized that his feet were no longer keeping to the road; he was stumbling over clumps of grass, stubbing his moccasin-clad toes on rocks. He looked back to find his path - he saw it, plain, a wavering line of black . . . Why was it wavering?

He didn’t want silence, after all. He wanted Rachel’s voice, no matter what she might say to him.

[> I love young Ian too. He and Rachel are the couple that will make Jamie and/or Claire gone bearable. He is SO earthy and strong in all the right ways. -- Kathy in PA, Tue, September 06 2022, 9:47:30

[> I think that much like Jamie and Claire, Rachel will be "home" for Ian, no matter where they are. -- DianaH, Wed, September 07 2022, 7:45:28

[> [> That’s a great way of putting it. No matter where they are or what he has to do. Remember the quote about her knowing he us a wolf but that he will come and sleep at her side each night - or something like that - too lazy to get book. I really like Rachel’s quiet courage. -- Kathy in PA, Wed, September 07 2022, 8:50:21
