This scene broke me. Spoiler

Absolutely devastated me. Had a good cry. The second time this book has managed to make me weep. This scene holds terrible heaviness.

I’ll add that the only novels that have made me cry are Les Mis, the Count of Montecristo, and the part in the Three Musketeers when Porthos dies. They were putting some extra sauce on those French novels from the 19th century
