The door to the room slammed shut behind the white-haired woman. The woman turned and stared at the door. Her slender shoulders made her appear taller than she was. On her dress, strange shapes of various sizes formed colorful piles on the floor. “Acuz,” Mayda whispered, looking excited. The white-haired woman turned quickly, her long skirts waving. There was not the slightest line on her face to indicate that he was having a hard time.She was holding a long pointed staff. Her tomato-colored eyes, which were just starting to mature, looked like they were piercing through. Her eyebrows, which stood like a puddle of white bushes just above her eyes, softened her lofty look a little. Tamir was stuck in her eyes after examining her from head to toe. Almost everyone in this country had dark eyes. Apart from Tamir, his family's eyes were also dark and slanted. With his straw-blond hair and ice-grey eyes, Tamir seemed to be shouting that he was a foreigner in this country. The woman said, "What kind of place is this," and spat on the ground. Her voice was loud for a woman's, filling the room and echoing off the walls. “I ran into a couple of Obur living on that mountain over there. They were almost starving: they looked weak and pale. I told them a place or two where they could find something to eat. They told me I could get here before dark, but even though I set off just before noon, I only got here at midnight. I'm cold to the bone, I need a warm bed. You just stop and look at me. Darkness is starting to rise even here.” She paused for a breath, glanced at everyone in the room one by one, then continued where She had left off. “ I want to warm up in front of the fire and smoke my drink. A glass of hot drink wouldn't be bad either. Of course, you pale skin people don't have such problems; but I'm still alive." The woman was talking about a kind of cigarette peculiar to the weak and a kind of slightly intoxicating drink peculiar to them. Mayda's face was confused.
She felt a sense of amazement mixed with fear before her helplessness. She wanted her to do her job and get out of there as soon as possible. "Excuse me, Acuz lady," said Tamir, "We forgot your needs." He didn't realize he had a silly grin on his face. “ Then why are you still waiting?” the woman shouted. Mayda shifted uncomfortably in her place. Artam was startled by the words of the helpless. Mayda said, “We were expecting you a little later, and as you said, we couldn't think of them because pale skin creatures don't have such needs. Our aim was never to disrespect you.” The Acuz made his way over to the fireplace and waved his long pointed staff.The fire was burning in the fireplace. “These are old excuses,” She said helplessly. “People like you are by nature thoughtless. These are the last places left for you to live on earth. ” Then her eyes fell on the bow and arrow hanging on the wall. She approached the wall with heavy steps. “So it's still here. I always thought I knew Tonka." There was a vague sadness in his voice. “Tonka has always been into the unknown. In fact, the greater the obscurity, the more he would follow. There was always more to her than holy wizardcraft.Tonka's curiosity finally prepared the end for everyone and everything." said Nesa as she entered the room. Acur stared at him for a long time, then a wide smile appeared on her face. “The Persian beauty, who was once a legendary beauty.
I should have brought daffodils for you. Unfortunately, I could not bring it because it is not the daffodil season. Would you like to stand by me tomorrow and watch me? You will never be like us, Nesa, but maybe you'll learn a thing or two." Artam blinked in surprise.Nesa glared at her, took her place right next to Mayda with a dull expression without a smile and said in an extremely calm tone, "Thank you for this kind offer, Acuz lady. I am quite surprised that you can still show kindness even though you have lived in the mountains for so long. It would be my pleasure to learn from you.” “Ayana,” She said .
They all stared. “My name is Ayana, not weak. She swung the hem of her colorful dress and her voice echoed in the room again. “I was once a holy magician. Now I'm a Acuz just by the name you call me. But we also have a name. My name is Ayana. Even though holy wizard has long since abandoned me, I am just a nickname given to me by you breaths." She swung the hem of her dress one last time and sat down in the armchair by the fireplace. “ Acuz … sorry… Miss Ayana,” said Mayda, still unsure of how to address her. “What's going on in the mountains? Has the rise of darkness spread far? What about the night when the stars will fall? ” “Do I have a Koncolos-like side? ” She grumbled and she took something out of her suit that the weak drink. She put a grass that grows in the mountains into a wooden device similar to a pipe and began to smoke it with pleasure. “I'm just a Acuz, not a pigeon you get the news.
I don't want to know anything about darkness, colder than starry nights or colder than ice. ” Artam started to say, “ But war,” but Ayana cut him off. “ These wars have brought us nothing but destruction for thousands of years. Neither the holy wizard nor their people have ever been happy. Wars don't interest me, I'm just here to trade between us. “Suddenly, he pointed a finger at Tamir. “You, you, with your tall neck, your gray eyes that are never seen among the pale, you look like a man from a people who once lived in the north, even from the people of Tonka in the north. Vora's lover is Igan. Icebreaker Igan.” Tamir couldn't tell if the woman was making fun of him. The woman turned her gaze to Artam this time. “And you are as big in size as his blood brother, Homar.” Artam gave him a laugh.
“Those old stories,” he simply said. Acur tugged at her skirt. There was a slight mockery in his voice as he said the bloody creature, "The creatures made up from these ancient stories are now in front of me in blood." Tamir decided it would be best for all of them to keep his mouth shut, but Artam had no intention of remaining silent. “Yes, we are monsters from those legends so you have to be careful too.” Acur drew a puff from his pipe and burst out laughing.
She simply said, "This much anger will hurt you, young boy." Tamir glanced at Nesa out of the corner of his eye: but she had given all her attention to the Acur. Nesa didn't like old tales at all, especially not the story of Tonka's fall. “Old tales,” Ayana said, waving her hand as if she were throwing something away. She reached into her pocket and pulled out three bottles of different colors. Acur again took her wand in her hand and muttered something. The liquids in the bottles moved towards the center of the bottles and began to dance in a circle. Ayana stood up and approached the window and looked up at the sky. “We will finish this work tomorrow night. Then you will keep your word and give me what I want.” No one in the room was making a sound. Ayana got up and walked to the middle of the room. When she let go of the bottles, they continued to spin around themselves, hanging in the air. “The destruction of the Kutsk people and the fall of Tonka” Ayana’s words were left unfinished. The spinning bottles suspended in the air suddenly stopped. He reached over to the feet, picked them up, and put them back in her pocket. Guva had entered the room. Ayana glanced at Guva. Her face and body were motionless, save for putting the bottles in her pocket. Guva approached her and took Ayana's right hand between her two hands, moving it back and forth. When Ayana saw her, she blinked and returned her greeting in the same way. “Welcome to our house, Ms. Acur. Excuse the rudeness of the children, and forgive us if they disrespected you.” “I didn't think they were being disrespectful and just call me Ayana,” he said. Turning to Mayda said, "Leave me alone with our guest and don't forget to prepare a meal for him before that." After the people in the room left, "Guva didn't teach your customs to your pale skinned people," she said reproachfully, "Ayana, don't be sorry for them," and approached the fireplace to warm his hand. Ayana settled back in her seat and took out her pipe-like drink. “Thanks for answering my call and coming.” After removing the fumes with her hand, Ayana said, “Let's see if others will heed our call. "

Wolves
When Akjan finished his story, Ewin's horse suddenly neighed in fear and began to jerk to free his reins. David stood up slightly as shapes appeared around them in the darkening forest. The horse reared and twisted, screaming.“Silence the horse,” Akjan said. "They didn't come for him, they won't hurt him, they won't hurt you either." Ewin held up his wand, Akjan said, "It won't be necessary." As if the humans were not there, the horses walked towards the fire and lay down among the humans. In the darkness among the trees, the light of the fire reflected from the eyes of more wolves on all sides. As Ewin raised his wand, Akjan said, "I wouldn't do that if I were you, they're friends," Ewin said that the four wolves were looking at him. He lowered his staff. He slowly sat down. David followed suit. The horse had stopped yelling and rearing. Instead, he stood trembling and fidgeting to keep all the wolves in sight, occasionally kicking to show the wolves. The wolves waited comfortably,
Road
Abigial's horse walked calmly under the weak sun. Uras and Mextumsila were riding right in front of him. He had had little real conversation with her since the next morning, when he found Mextumsila and Uras on the banks of his river. Of course it was talked about, but as far as Abigila saw, it was nothing major. She did not trust Mextumsila and wanted to find David and Yelis, certain that they were alive. Otherwise, Mextumsila wouldn't still be looking for them. She had to keep good relations with Mextumsila unless she had to. The cursed woman said nothing to her! Finding them hadn't even opened his mouth to her people."As I told you," Mextumsila replied, not bothering to turn to look at her, "I would have known if we had gotten closer to them." Abigial had repeatedly asked her if there was a sign. Mextumsila also felt Abigial's gaze on her back. "Will you really know when you get close to them?"“I can know”“What if Yelis is already dead”“I know you are not dead, Girl, Erendiz a

The next day, Captain, Psefit and Erendiz were chatting among themselves. Erendiz was telling Psefit about the mischief he did in Karagöl. The captain looked at him slyly. "You're already thinking of home, young man, and are you new to the world? What will you find when you get home?" Erendiz was startled. How long had it been since he thought about his house and Karagöl? What about his mother? Days passed. It felt like months to Erendiz. "I will go home one day, I don't know when I can do it. But I will return home. Then I'll find my mother there, we'll forget that all this even existed” Psefit “Isn't this all for going home? Real and” Erendiz, with a visible effort, moved away from looking up the river after the disappearing rocks. “What? Ah. Yes, of course. We'll go home. Of course. To the real home…” As Erendiz turned to go, Psefit heard him mutter softly.During the four days of their journey down the river, Erendiz found himself sitting on the blunt end atop the mast, his legs wr
On the Raft
Yelis was shaken and opened his eyes. A dark, pale light faded slightly. He didn't move anything except his eyes, barely breathing. A coarse woolen blanket covered him up to his shoulders, and his head was in his arms. He could feel the smooth wooden planks under his hands. The deck gnashed like the teeth of a monster that wanted to eat him. He took a long breath. The wind was blowing strong, inflating the sails of the raft like a balloon. The raft was moving silently through the dark waters. “There is no rock to be afraid of, there are many shallow areas where the raft can land,” said the captain. However, they did not approach the shore for days, neither during the day nor at night. Sometimes the wind blew from the opposite direction. They traveled for two days, bouncing with every jolt of the raft. At the end of the second day, the impact of the attack on the ruined city and forest began to wane. The captain spoke to them about the dangers of stepping on land in the dark and of run
Akjan
The man opened one eye and stared at David's hiding place. “You and your friend can sit down and have a snack.” David hesitated, then stood up slowly, clutching his knife tightly. “Are you going to invite him in, or are you planning to eat the whole rabbit yourself?” said the manDavid raised his voice. "Ewin! No problem!" He stretched out his hand and added in a more normal tone: “My name is David and my friend's is Ewin.” He paused before the man said his name. “My name is Akjan. I come from the North, from beyond Mount Elbrus.” Ewin cautiously emerged on his horse.He tied the mare's reins to one of the smaller branches of the oak, and David introduced her to Akjan. “It is surprising to see one of the Abzka people this far south,” Ewin said. " Mine. It's amazing to see some of the Kutsk people in it this far north,” he said, looking at David as he said this. “And encountering a false witch,” the man was still quite kind. David's eyes were constantly on the rabbit in the fire. When
David and Ewin
In a small tree grove, David slumped in the dark among the tree branches. The needles that pricked his body pulled him out from the depths of his dreams. When he opened his eyes, there were sweet-smelling branches woven over his face. Sunlight was filtering in through the gaps. He looked at her, not knowing where she was. Most of the branches fell as he stood up in surprise, but some casually hung from his shoulders or even his head, making it look like a tree. The memories came back quickly. Abigial had lost him in the fog. Out of breath, he frantically emerged among the piles of tree branches. Holding his breath, he looked around carefully. Nothing moved. The morning was cold and still. He took a deep, calming breath. The small evergreen woods that surrounded him were the first refuge he had found last night. It was sparse enough to offer little protection from the eyes that followed him when he stood up. He ripped branches off him head and shoulders, pushing the rest of her thorny
