'Soulbonds mean a slow, lingering death for those who carry them--and Guiro's soulbond is nearly at an end. But if he dies near other people, the soulbond will jump to them.
'And so, at the end of a long, cobbled alleyway, Guiro lingers over his very last approach to the door of the place he used to call home. Just for a few more minutes, he needs to pretend he belongs.'
