That's part of the problem, Mathias thinks. For so long, he hadn't been alone. First there had been Henrich, moving from place to place with him, traveling and visiting and being tourists together. Veronica hadn't been a replacement, not at all, but he hadn't been alone on the island for very long before meeting her and though they hadn't moved around a lot, she'd been a constant, just like Henrich.
Now he's alone. Now he has to figure out a way to do everything he'd done before, but without anyone else.
"My brother came with me," he says finally, smiling slightly. "Most places, anyway." Not here. Henrich could never come here.
