Summary
In the shadows out west, a man without eyes watches the lands. Watches the miner’s camp. Watches the train with the thief on it. Watches the girl with the quick hands and the preacher who guards a town whose name is as lifeless as his eyes are when he wakes up alone at night.
He smiles, and he waits, and he watches. He does as he always does. He shuffles the deck.
(The Mason family reunion nobody was expecting, least of all them.)

Summary
“People call us heroes. They don’t stop to think about everything that we put into it. That we are just human beings, with our own lives. Those actions weren’t divorced from our humanity, even if they did change history.”
Ed isn't comfortable with the depersonalization of hero worship. Ling sees from a new perspective. Could be any ship the reader pleases.
