The following quotation is from Written In my Own Heart’s Blood by Diana Gabaldon. Copyright 2014 All Rights Reserved. Chapter 106 A Brother Of The Lodge


But Mandy, little fist clutching her emerald, had turned toward the biggest of the standing stones. Her mouth dropped open for a moment, and then suddenly her face brightened as though someone had lit a candle inside her.

”Daddy!” she shrieked, and, yanking her hand out of Brianna’s, raced directly toward the cleft stone - and into it.

“Jesus!” Brianna barely heard Menzie’s shocked exclamation. She ran toward the stone, tripped over Esmeralda, and fell full length in the grass, knocking out her wind.

“Mama!” Jem paused for a moment beside her, glancing wildly back and forth between her and the stone where his little sister had just vanished.

“I’m . . . okay,” she managed, and with that assurance, Jem charged across the clearing, calling back, “I’ll get her, Mam!”

[> I think we’re building up to Mandy and Jem being “super” travelers because of two TT genes. She sure has her grandma’s nerve and confidence too. -- Kathy in PA, Fri, December 09 2022, 4:05:25

[> [> Master Raymond and the Compte seem to be super travelers. Makes me wonder if either of them is going to pop up. -- kgp, Fri, December 09 2022, 4:33:51
