Summary
“My heart for Miss Cracroft’s,” James explained, forcing his voice to sound certain and calm even if he was quickly feeling anything but. Crozier kept staring at him, a thunderstorm growing in his face. The furious silence reigned between them for another minute before James added, “You... eat the hearts of the… young and beautiful…”
The Wizard Crozier’s stare was hard and unbreakable. James could feel the snappings of electricity in the air around them, the hair standing up on the back of his neck. He could feel it now, the sheer power in this man.

Summary
“There’s colour in your cheeks, at least,” Francis judged, and stood. “I will return with the doctor as soon as I may. Do stay upright, James,” he added, with a tinge of real worry.
“I am capable of sitting in a chair,” James returned with some hauteur, and then Francis left the tent and James had to put all his effort and energy into not making himself a liar.

Summary
Back in the Arctic, stuffed two to a sleeping sack and trying to keep each other alert, he and James used to name every good type of thing they would eat when they got back, knowing–as they thought–the time would never come.
'Cream puffs', James had sighed one frigid night in a partial feverish delirium. Francis could hardly see him but for the lightest starlight, yet he had heard the smile evident in his voice all the same. That close, he had nearly felt it.

Hailed as heroes on their miraculous return to England, Francis and James fail to cope, but nonetheless manage to fall together.

Summary
“The loss of a ship is a small price to pay for the completion of the Passage, wouldn’t you say?” James said, employing his best smile. Make it look easy, make it look painless, and people would gladly follow you—he’d learnt that early on.
“Well I’d not thought to see it,” said Sir John, looking between the two of them. “If both of you are of one mind, there must be some truth to it. Very well.” He clapped his hands together. “Francis, James, the two of you can figure out the logistics. I’ll inform the men after David Young’s funeral service. Begin preparations immediately.”
