Ronan shakes his head, not in argument, but simply because Gansey doesn't know. He doesn't understand.

As long as Ronan's been here, he's never heard of someone disappearing and then coming back. When people leave this place, they're gone. Either back to where they came from or gone for good, no one knows. But they don't come back.

But he's not from Ronan's dreams. Ronan would know. He would remember.

Wouldn't he?

"Last thing I remember is taking the Pig while you and Parrish were fucking off in DC," he says, an edge to his voice. "I was racing Kavinsky, but I ended up here." He doesn't mention the state of the Pig at the time or that he'd lost the terror. Doesn't mention that, when he got here, he'd been completely alone, not even Declan following along behind him. "But I know more. I know about Maura going missing, about Matthew. I know Kavinsky's dead. Cheng said something about a fucking toga party and I know his family bought shit off my dad. I know... I know I dreamt Cabeswater."

The last is something he knew before, too. He'd just never said it. Sometimes he's still not sure he believes it.
