Claire Randall Monolgue #1:

Mrs Graham had warned me not to spend my days chasing a ghost, and so I hadn't. But now that I was here, the ghosts were starting to chase me.
Roger tell Claire there's a college in Inverness asked him to donate his father's library for their archives, but he's not sure to donate all of them because the reverend quite fond of several rare editions of Prince Charles Stuart and the Battle of Culloden.

Back in April 16, 1746, the day of Culloden battle, Jamie try his best to influence Prince Charles to stop the battle, but he wasn't success. Claire comes up with a crazy idea to stop the battle is to kill Prince Charles with some jasmine potion. Dougal overheard and try to stop them. Jamie has no other choice than silence his uncle.


When Claire set her foot on Culloden Mor, in front of Clan Fraser tomb, she tell Jamie everything about her life after she came back thorough the stone. After 20 years, Claire finally say good bye to Jamie Fraser. On the reverend box, Brianna found old newspaper piece about Claire kidnapped by the Fairies. Bree confront Claire about this event.

Corner for the truth, Claire tells Bree everything. Bree wanted to know the truth even though it's hard for her to believe that her real father is a redheaded guy in a kilt from the 18th century. To make Bree believe, Claire show her the deed to Lallybroch that has her name on it.

Claire Randall Monolgue #2:


There were ghosts around me everywhere since I'd arrived. The face was unmistakable, Geillis Duncan. I remember the date she told me at the trial, the year she came through the stones. 1968.

This was no ghost. Geillis was here, younger version of her, but she was here.

Found a flyer with a younger version of Geillis, Claire come to see her at her house. Out of her luck, Claire only meet with her husband, Greg. He tell Claire, Geillis has been away for a week. That night, Roger, Bree, and Claire try to stop Geillis from traveling time through stone.

Claire Randall Monolgue #3:

For hours I read Geillis' notebooks. I tried to make sense of the convoluted pages. They contained formulas about the art and science of time travel.

Unlike myself, Geillis had studied and prepared for her journey. I was stunned to learn she believed you must have a human sacrifice to move through the stones, and gemstones to protect and guide you.

From what I could tell, Geillis planned to pass through
Craigh na Dun, and soon. Sadly, I knew how that trip would end, with Geillis burned on a pyre in Cranesmuir. I had to try and stop her.

Knowing the battle of Culloden is a lost cause, Jamie ask Murtagh to gather the Frasers of Lallybroch together and get them out of moor. For her safety because she's pregnant, Jamie take Claire to Craigh Na Dun, make her fulfill her promise to back home if the battle of Culloden is coming.
