Dragonfly in Amber

Claire’s story finished, she turns to Roger and Brianna to see their reaction. Brianna becomes angry and refuses to believe it. Claire despairs, claiming she has nothing to prove her story. Roger asks if there’s a jeweler’s mark on the wedding ring Jamie gave her. Claire says she’s never taken it off. When she does, Claire is shocked to find an engraving of a line of poetry inside. Roger sees the look on her face and tells her that is proof enough for him.

Claire shows Roger a copy of his family tree and tells him that part of the tree is inaccurate. She points to a child who was born and 1744, telling him that the child born to this family died, causing the subsequent adoption of another boy who took on the same name as the dead child. The adopted child was the child of Geillis Duncan and Dougal MacKenzie. Claire continues by saying that Geillis gave her a message through Dougal before she died that included the year 1968. She believes that is when Geillis went through the stones, and that she believes Geillis is a woman named Gillian Edgars, a name she got from Fiona. She suggests they find Gillian before she goes through the stones to warn her of her fate in 1744.
