" Some things experienced under duress could never be shared or explained. She would never know just what horrors Nate has gone through in Redwater, or what Thom had experienced in the Red Arena or at the hands of Quen. She didn't want to. If they wanted to share, she'd listen, but she didn't yearn to know more horror. Whether she was scared that talking about it made it too real, or she thought the idea too impossibly horrible to Impart, or whether it was shame and hatred, Kitty could not find the words to relay what had happened in Timberview Palace. Quen and the cannibalism frightened her far less than the memories of Gabriel, which kept her forever feeling as if there was not enough space between their camp and Franklin's Wall. Death did not seem a secure enough holding cell for his soul. "
