It's called false hope and a red herring. Think about it. Do you really think a heavily injured ten year old could survive for eight hours without any medical treatment? Dragon kind of screwed the pooch on that one. If anything, his death will be used as a plot device that further fuels Dragon's resolve to change the world. He was introduced to die, just like so many other characters.
