Why this should be read: This is such a powerful tale of loss, grief, vengance and finding home. In the talented hands of Perspi, this is a story that will stay with you for a long time.

Ronon recites the Song for the Dead as he carries stones. When he began, Teyla had looked at him with surprise before nodding her thanks. She doesn't watch his progress, focusing instead on the cloth-wrapped bundle in her arms.

It doesn't take long to gather enough stones for a child-sized cairn.
