сущ.; SK, DTсокр. от vagrant deadв состоянии ментального прыжка в другом мире можно было видеть внезапно-умерших людей)“The vagrant dead,” Roland replied. “I heard of them from Alain Johns’s father. It must have been not long after we returned from Mejis, for after that there wasn’t much more time before everything… what is it you say, Susannah? Before everything ‘went to hell in a handbasket.’ In any case, it was Burning Chris who warned us that if we ever went todash, we might see vags.” He pointed across the street where the naked dead man still stood. “Such as him yonder have either died so suddenly they don’t yet understand what’s happened to them, or they simply refuse to accept it. Sooner or later they do go on. I don’t think there are many of them.” — Бродячие мертвяки, – уточнил Роланд. – Я слышал о них от отца Алена Джонса. Вероятно, вскоре после того, как мы вернулись из Меджиса, потому что потом времени на разговоры не осталось… разверзся ад… Во всяком случае, именно Крис Джонс предупреждал нас, что мы можем увидеть бродячих мертвяков, если войдем в Прыжок, – он указал на мертвого мужчину, который стоял на другой стороне улицы. – Такое случается, если они умирают очень быстро и даже не понимают, что с ними произошло. Или когда просто отказываются смириться со смертью. И рано или поздно у них начинается новая жизнь. Не думаю, что их много. (ТБ 5)
