Kai awoke with a start—tears fresh in his eyes though he knew not why. He could never remember his dreams, but from the state of his mind he knew that they must have been of Cinder.

"Weren't we supposed to make it?" He asked himself, squeezing tears from his eyes and letting them fall into the sink below. "Weren't we supposed to make it?"
