               "Tell me the truth!“

He does not shout. Not until he is desperate,
at the very least.  And, by the Maker,  is he so
very desperate right now.

                           He wants news of their family,
                           needs   news  of  their   family.

All this not knowing, all this waiting with such
a fear in his gut…   Balfour knows something
terrible  has  happened,  can see  it from  the 
look in her eyes,  and he has to know what it
is, what he missed because he came to this
blighted place far too soon.

                ”Tell me the truth,“ he pleads, voice 
hoarse and  weak and  desperate.  The only
thing  worse  than  not   being  there  for  his 
family through  such horrors is being  left to
imagine what those horrors are.
