The road was dirt, frozen into ridges that caught the moonlight. Winter had killed the cicadas. The only sound was the crunch of his straw sandals on the hard ground. Song was eighteen years old and did not believe in ghosts. He had buried both parents before he turned twelve. He had watched his older brother cough blood into a rag for six months until the rag stopped being necessary. He had learned, in the way that only people who have lost everything can learn, that the world owed him nothing and he owed the world less. A ghost would have to work very hard to frighten him.</p>
