Gold for Eliza
She was thirteen.  Thirteen, and they told him she was dying.

Stephan Thomas was not much older at seventeen, but even still he thought it was sad.  Sad like the calves that did not survive the first few days after birth, their little bodies shriveled and pale, bones jutting out in sharp, awkward points.  When they told him that Eliza was dying, he sat quietly on the back step trying to remember all he knew about her.
