A Stranger's Vision.
“Sergeant?”
The vision is so clear that for a moment Reaper can only stand, fighting his way back to reality. His eyes focus.
“Sergeant? Are you-“
“Let him through.”
“But Sergeant-“
“Let him through, son.” Reaper’s eyes are locked on the man with the bone white hair and the pair of revolvers. “He’s got work to do.”
The stranger’s young-old face smiles tiredly. “As do we all.”
The Watchers of the Wall unbar the gate. But as the stranger walks through, Reaper grabs his arm.
“And I’ll go with him.”
The strange prophet only smiles his assent.

Thanks for reading - I've tried to leave clues, it'll become more obvious soon (space permitting).

I suppose I should have guessed this already, but I am going to have to read the rest of this series before this installment now when I get the chance. I get the feeling I am going to love it, like the two I have now read today.

Now that I've introduced the main characters in this series, to be honest I'm not sure where the story goes next. I'm expecting a delay while I get some ideas together, hopefully will write some more soon.
