- This short chapter is about a dream Deborah has.
- In the dream it's winter.
- A giant fisted hand appears out of the sky and then opens. In its palm are three pieces of coal.
- The fist closes again with such pressure that there's white light from the heat of it.
- Deborah feels like she's like the coal being pressed and shouts out, "Stop it!"
- The fist opens, and there are three diamonds.
- A voice says, "Deborah, this will be you."
