Groog paid close attention as the woman Mog-ur removed the hide-wrapped remains from the cave one at a time and placed them in the grave. Everyone knew this last part had come from a revelation their First Zelandoni had experienced during her calling to the Zelandonia, a revelation that had changed all of their lives. Ayla had to admit to herself that it fit him well and he looked so handsome and strong. Tormaden sent a young hunter running down the trail to the cave with an urgent request for his Zelandoni to come as quickly as possible. Then placing the stem between Jondalar's lips, she then removed her fingertip, allowing the infusion to enter his mouth. She looked down at the stones she still held in her hands and felt an excitement that she was unfamiliar with. The balance this time was the loss of Wolf. Cambarre began to sweat and his heart began to beat faster as he moved through the forest, looking at the ground, noticing here and there the prints of one human being. Ayla watched, wide-eyed as the tawny predator leapt with its jaws wide, showing sharp carnassial fangs made for slicing into its prey. What do I plan to do next? In that moment, the thought flickered through his head that he'd have to incorporate that smile into his stories about her and not just any woman that smiles, hers was quite dazzling. Do you have time for some tea?". The First from the south had thought of her as just another ordinary Zelandoni, with not as much experience in life as those older and wiser. She wanted to make sure that Madroman would be there and this was the surest way. "I was adopted by our Clan's Medicine Woman who was first among all the Medicine Women in the eastern clans. "Yes, alright. It continued to produce the finest whitest salt imaginable. The two boys mounted their horses and trotted away from the meadow. Ayla looked around at the man whose eyes were again wide with fright. Finally a third bullroarer began, even closer in. "I can't really see what help you would need," Jondalar said frowning. "I can see this becoming a tradition. ", "I don't know, but please come with him when he is called and if you would interpret for him I would appreciate it. Jondalar had always tried to imitate his mate's unique ability to do that, but he sighed as he pressed his hands to his knees as he slowly stood. They had grown prosperous and multiplied without any natural disasters to thin their ranks, they had grown to two holdings and were looking for a place to build a third. Ayla looked back the way they had come and saw her daughter and some of the horses enter the bend in the ridge trail and said out loud, "Yes, it is good to be home." Maybe after a night of sleep he would understand more and feel more confident. Ayla remained silent, watching the other Zelandonia and the leaders as they interacted with Groog through her daughter. The second the novel was released in the year 1982 by the Bantam publishing house under the title The Valley of Horses. I have nothing against flat Clan people", "Yes, I'm sure you're right Tormaden, forgive my temper, I realize it's not your fault." Crazy Eyes looked at the blonde woman and then at the big blonde man sitting on his horse beside her. There was talk about banishing him from anywhere within their territories but it was felt that he might go somewhere else and cause similar trouble. Gripping the Clan spear for support, Ayla raised her voice to chant the Mother's Song: "Out of the darkness, the chaos of time,The whirlwind gave birth to the Mother sublime.She woke to Herself knowing life had great worth,The dark empty void grieved The Great Earth Mother.". Golden skin and golden hair with a confidence that shone from Her face and there was no doubt who was at Her side. "Shouldn't we just make sure they don't cross the river? There was no time to skin it, but neither he nor Jondalar wanted to leave the pelt behind to be destroyed by carrion eaters, so they gutted it to reduce the weight. He would teach this woman who claimed to be Mog-ur how to address a man and a leader. We still have the last Matrimonial to get through, and unfortunately, so soon after the burial ceremony. Mageb heard the whooping and the galloping hooves and whirled around to see two of the Others coming toward them. I'm willing to do what I must to earn my home and my place in it. He almost worships the First Zelandoni; she made quite an impression on the children, actually on all of us." "We were close to unearthing a Ptarmigan nest or two and we still have to skin the wolf for its pelt. You know that you're beautiful, now you're just fishing for complements," Ayla reached across to her daughter and tickled her ribs, making her smile and squirm. As he looked at his mate though, all he could see was a radiant smile and eyes that sparkled. Once Madroman had been settled at the back of the cave where the root vegetables were stored, Ayla was able to relax by the Mog-ur's fire. ", Jondalar smiled, "You are something more than an ordinary female Ayla. "What type of spears are those, master spear maker?" ", Jondalar stopped walking and, still holding Ayla's hand, pulled her around to face him. There were no Zelandoni who doubted this, they all knew what they had experienced was genuine and that no tricks had been portrayed. In complete harmony, the two urged the horses forward, following them down the trail toward the valley floor. So when you make your decision where to stay, keep us in mind. "The female Mog-ur is not lying to me that she cares about what happens to us. "And thank you Cambarre, I'll stay here and find more rocks, maybe larger ones to add to the pile that protects Brukeval's grave.". Jonayla knew what her mother was going to do with those ingredients. If this continues, our leader will talk to other Clans and we will combine our strength and fight back, killing those who kill us.". Joharran nodded agreement and hurried away to do as she had requested. He reminded her of someone she felt she should know. Clan women care for the young and they care for their mate, they have the memories for it. They rounded a bend in the trail and saw the outdoor hearth that told them they had arrived at First Wolf Cave. Cambarre reached between their bodies then Jonayla gasped as she felt his eagerness penetrate her. He smiled tongue in cheek as he said this and then continued. Even though he knew it was rude to do so. I doubt that she leads the men, you must have been mistaken or deceived.". As this procession was the sole concern of the Zelandoni, and since the First Zelandoni had been their leader too, they felt they should join in and help. ", Jonayla added, "I think Melodene will be returning with us to the Ninth Cave when we leave the Summer Meeting. It turned out the vote was split and those who Ayla expected support from gave it and those she doubted would, withheld their support. It just seems fitting that there be some small token of the spirit that discovered such a place as that.". the boy virtually wriggled with excitement and admiration, so much so that his father felt momentary jealousy at his son's obvious hero worship. "I'm not sure I would have ever thought to do such a thing. "Greetings mother," Jonayla smiled at her mother. It was most providential that you came here when you did, and with a wolf. She wouldn't back down, not when there were so many Clan people already dead. Cambarre looked at Ayla and smiled, "I saved my mate. Jonayla didn't touch it. Ayla's eyes had opened wide at these last remarks, her gray irises dilated in anger, but she held herself in. "Groog, tell us about this child. I hope that's alright. Isn't that what Durcan and I have heard from the day we were born? In fact I believe that was the place where the First Zelandoni's Wolf marked the cave, all those years ago, when he found this place. "You know, it's a good thing that you came to us when you did Zelandoni. Since then I have meditated long and hard on it and that original explanation has the ring of truth about it. We have discussed this enough. Then Tormaden and Kimadar carried the unconscious man to the cave to be placed near the other wounded men. "Yes, that's a good idea." If he will not help, then I will add my voice to yours and we will see." "It's a wounded wolf pup daughter. I don't want to head into the forest to the south on foot if we don't have to. "That is perfectly true, leader of the Twenty-Ninth Cave," Ayla replied in a restrained voice, "but even though we don't have all the answers to the problem, it doesn't hurt to listen to the information we do have access to. ", "Very well mother, I'll stay with him and talk with him. Like people, wolf pups would likely each be of their own nature. They stood for a while just looking at each other and exchanging questions and listening to answers as close family members do when catching up after being apart. Then suddenly the earth shook violently, knocking most of the people to the ground. When she had told her daughter to seek out her friends, she had done so partly because she felt that there would be a confrontation with her fellow Zelandoni. Children were a very important part of everyone's life and to know they had started a child so soon after their first sharing of pleasures bode well for the future size of their family. Fill the water bags at the stream," he instructed his son. They have turned evil under the influence of this Shaman. It had been a tight shot, if Durcan had moved suddenly she might have hit him instead of the wolf, but she felt she'd had no choice but to try. If it wasn't so hard to go without for so long, I'd say it was almost worth the wait," she giggled happily. Thank you for your service, it is appreciated.". Some of the young men of South Face have decided to ride back and get his things. The older blonde Donier began to speak, "I am glad that the first of the southerners and the Donier of Lance Cave mentioned experience. Why then did you leave him?". As they moved deeper into the forest it soon became obvious that they would have to dismount and lead the horses. I am so grateful to you Zelandoni, you are truly First among the Zelandoni. Cambarre had returned with a first load of wood and had just lit the kindling that had been carefully placed under the larger sticks, when hearing a noise close by, they both stopped and looked around. So I went back to the good old library again and took out books on how to write fiction.''. For the first time in almost a full moon cycle she felt 'herself' again. And they all laughed again. This was a time when it was expected that good wishes should be exchanged between different groups, even if some lodges had no one mating at that particular Matrimonial. Don't think that everyone has forgotten what she has brought to the Zelandonii people. What will we do about supplies for the winter on those years when we hold the Summer Meetings south of the Ninth Cave?". Ayla had been peeling the skins off some fresh carrots and paused for a moment holding her hand out for the eggs. Jonayla never thought it possible that the Zelandoni from the south would become a friend to her mother. The last I heard he was mated to Tulie as second mate. You told the First Zelandoni about that?" Ayla didn't like the man; she thought he might be even more dangerous than Brukeval. ", She didn't want to be in command; Joharran had spoken up but no one else had and she didn't want Crazy Eyes to guess how unsure she really felt. She looked up into her daughter's tear stained face and spoke in something just more audible than a whisper, "Wolf knew the Mother would speak and that the earth would shake and he came to me. As the one who was the highest ranked among the Zelandonia, it fell to Ayla to conclude the issue, but she asked if anyone else wished to speak. She hadn't discussed this with him in advance on purpose so that no one could accuse her of trying to influence him. "Because," Camma replied, "this man deserves no such effort on our part. Durcan had been lucky to find a pair of rabbits in a clearing. To Jonayla's chagrin, the small wolf stopped in the main gallery and sniffed at the wall, lifting his leg and peeing against the white gypsum. I could go on for hours with questions about different characters from the books! They finally circled back to the secluded meadow with the small pool they had visited the day before. ''I can't even guarantee that,'' Auel admits. There was a time once when I wandered the earth without any family at all, which makes me appreciate family more than most. Sure enough, as they approached a small waterfall filling a pool at the base of a low ridge of granite, Ayla saw a large crack in the rock face. Ayla looked from Jonayla to Cambarre. He could confront this man of the Others or go to see what the woman might be doing to his hunters with her weapon. He immediately turned his horse to head back down the trail, when Ayla called to him, "Bandoman, wait until morning, it's late in the day. Ayla was to preside over seven mating vows, bringing each of the couples together under the Mother's spiritual presence and finishing each by tying the woman's right wrist to the man's left wrist. As they left the river bank heading north again, the trail became so faint that Joharran had to call Melodene forward to walk beside him. Do you think your leader will speak about necessities with a female?" Both older men caught their breath and wide-eyed they looked up at each other. 27. Everyone knew that those lines indicated her Clan totem - a Cave Lion claw mark which, he had been told, she had on her left thigh from a real cave lion attack. "No, not if you want to take the young. Maybe in the future my family can attend your Summer Meeting; I think I would like that. So many people volunteered to go that the leaders finally had to limit the number of hunters to twenty and chose the most reliable men among the volunteers. "What! "You mean since Wolf found the White Cave part of his essence should reside there for all time? I only ask this because I would know your strength. She had to be close to forty summers by now but she still looked excitingly healthy and vibrant. she asked the Zelandoni of the Fifth Cave, who was responsible for the lodge that morning. Then I want to visit Brukeval's grave. "Having proved her meekness and subservience to Atta, Armuna was soon trusted enough to prepare Atta's food and even the food of the other men when they feasted with him in his lodge. It was the same thing as her mother's realization about how babies were made - between a man and a woman - by simple observation and by understanding what you were observing. Thankfully, the lion twisted his body toward the sounds for a moment, giving her a chance to reach down and pick up the Clan spear. He had begun to question his ability to challenge the Zelandoni from the Ninth Cave the second night after his arrival when he had wanted to get away from everyone else and think. His head was larger than considered normal, even for his muscular body and he had a massive brow-ridge with what looked like one bushy eyebrow running in an unbroken line along it. Durcan pointed toward a stand of trees. Soon he slept the healing sleep. Jean is particularly known for his world famous novel series, Earths Children, which a set of several historical fiction novels. So between all of us, we should be able to conclude this conflict soon and hopefully deal with those who caused it. Melodene would be having her child around the same time as Jonayla and both she and Willamar were willing to stay behind with Jonayla and Cambarre that summer to help. Seeing that he'd hit his target, he scrambled away before Willamar could give him a half-hearted swat for the teasing he'd just received. "No, that would be alright. She was annoyed at his delay, but didn't complain, there was no reason to offend him. She wears a medicine woman's otter pouch and speaks Clan as well as you and I do. The only people willing to do something like that would be the Shaman's men. As he was saying his farewells Artibon asked if he could come with him. He'd seen her talking to Groog and interpreting for him at meetings, but until now he hadn't really paid much attention to it. "His name is was Blandar," she said. She was born in the year 1936 in Chicago, United States to Neil Solomon Untinen and Martha Wirtanen. It ended up that he caught her in his arms as she fell from the horse. She still held Jondalar's hand in hers, not wanting to let go. As an Amazon Associate, I earn money from qualifying purchases. Because my cave is close to the Ninth Cave I saw you from the beginning and saw your abilities. The other books in the series were all set in the here and now and I felt I shouldn't break away from that format. ", "Well, considering everything that must be done I can't say I envy you," Jonayla said sincerely, "but I'll do everything I can to help you.". They would take him south with them and he would be made to serve the people of the Fifth Cave south. And when it is over she will make time to talk with you.". Ayla felt like she was somehow outside of her own body now, as if the Mother was speaking through her. ", "Well," Ayla said. "You have it wrong!" Now, in The Plains of Passage, Ayla's story continues. Still traversing the path on horseback, they looked down and saw a large lake forming behind the tall rock rampart. One is dark brown all over and the other has the average brown coat with tan belly. They were casting spells at each other and suddenly our old Shaman clutched his chest and fell over dead. Seeing the signal this late in the day would mean that the Donier procession would halt overnight and enter the sacred site the next day. How dare this woman lie to him about the Spirit World. It felt good to snap the branches from the trunk with her bare hands, it soothed her anger to act out on the inert pieces of wood. Remember to breathe.

He is a man who has always kept the traditions of the Clan. My only question is, will everyone agree with it? Camma had seen the horses in the corral and wondered who from the Zelandonii had come to visit. He had explained to Durcan that his parents might come back from any direction east or west, but that they would surely come through the area of the Nineteenth Cave. "This female could help us. She felt as if a weight had been lifted from her. Even in just the filtered moonlight it was obvious that she was covered in blood, from her shoulders to her thighs. She hurriedly tied the rope to a shady tree. This was her Matrimonial necklace, the one given to her by Zelandoni, who had once been the First Zelandoni who was her friend. The first among us to die was a man I was thinking about mating. "I believe the Mother has spoken to me in my dreams and since you came with the ashes I hear Her voice even louder and clearer in my head. As they stepped through the curving passage into the pillar room, pure golden light dazzled their eyes. Ayla left Jondalar's side and walked past Joharran, gripping his arm and murmuring, "Stay here. Ayla said these things as she sprinkled Blandar's shrouded body from head to toe with the red powder. I don't know what they will do. I know what a trained Mog-ur of the Clan can do with it. There have been ones from the Others who have lived with us in the past and she could be one of those. We have no time for the likes of you!'". It was still startling to see a woman using a weapon, especially so proficiently. Ayla went over to the pallet where Robinar lay propped up against piled furs so that his head and shoulders were raised. I feel pride in being her mate and that makes me want to be the best I can be to keep her respect. ", "We have had some offers but haven't decided where we'll stay yet," Ralev replied. he exclaimed. Artibon and Durcan gripped wrists in a farewell gesture. "We all know about Medicine Women from you Ayl uh First Zelandoni," Ralev paused. The Death Curse is the ultimate punishment," Mongar said, confused. And with a bird spear at that," he said, sounding relieved. His horse stumbled and whinnied in fear. Then we will hear from the first Zelandoni who serves among the caves below Big River in the far south. Stop!" So she came up with a plan to avenge herself on Atta and the other men. Brog felt tired. "I guess my point is that Durc, my Clan baby, was the instrument that began the thought that the Mother finally clarified to me when she called me to the Zelandonia. Duroban climbed down from the rock and called to the other side of the trail, "Stay and continue to watch, I'll be back as soon as I have delivered these people to our leader." It has been five summers since we last used that holding for a gathering. They have the same problems that you have and they have the same fears and insecurities as you, so keep in mind how you would feel when you say things that may be hurtful to others.". This was done for no apparent reason that we could understand. As he approached, Ayla stood up, she had the strange feeling that maybe this man of the Clan would be able to see beyond the memories and accept. It would keep him as cool as possible while maintaining a running pace. Both children were still of the hearth, but Bran was only a season away from manhood and remained silent with big brown eyes that followed his father's every move. There is no reason to sit in deliberation once the Mother has spoken. 2 guests They both looked around at the profusion of paintings both complete and in progress. It was also decided during their meeting to take some time next summer to search for the fever fungus. I've lived almost sixty summers now and I don't expect to go on forever, but I'll help you any way I can, especially through this," the Third offered. Look down there, he isn't moving." She asked her mother. "Oh yes, I understand." He would be content to stay behind and enjoy a quiet summer with the newborns. I don't want to have just people who agree with me. Jonayla had come upon the sad scene after the violence had taken place and had been more composed than either her mother or Cambarre. I made the sacred substance for the Mog-ur ceremonies." "So you have been in the midst of the Others all this time?" She then turned and walked away from the horse and it went back to grazing on the late spring grasses. That person is completely hidden now, but I saw movement there too.". Seeing the signal this late in the day would mean that the Donier procession would halt overnight and enter the sacred site the next day. "Are you in some sort of hurry lovely one?" The Mog-ur looked at this woman of the Others for a moment, trying not to let her see his thoughts in his expression. At least until the forests had time to recover and the game came back to the area. "Yes Jondalar, I know stories become more and more inflated as time goes on, but that is the way of things. When Jonayla had explained what they would do next he understood why they had to go to the Chimu people. Jondalar did as she asked and with the help of Cambarre, was able to gag and blindfold him quickly and silently. How could anyone be this evil? "Let us hear from Tormaden, the leader of the Nineteenth Cave. I was mortified that I had made the mistake, but when he recovered I was elated. Then the Mother told the S'Armunai people that so long as they kept the law, they would prosper, but if they did wrong again she would not forgive them a second time. 'I'll remove the spearhead and wash the wound and rinse it with an infusion of blue lobelia and honey." How many of his men would stay if that happened? "So how did you become leader?" Ayla refrained from speaking about being cursed with death. He suggested they corral and unburden their horses and waited until they had, then led them into one of the many caves. As he turned to leave, Ayla slipped behind a large fallen tree whose trunk was almost as thick as she was tall and listened to the man's footfall as he passed her position. It seemed like each member knew instinctively what the other was thinking. She looked down at her father, eyes widening in shock and concern at how much weight he'd lost and the sickly pallor of his skin. She'd been nice to him, treating him like a man, someone of importance. She felt a mixture of relief and guilt as they disappeared into the forest, appearing as little dots on the southern edge of the valley before being obscured by trees. Unfortunately, there was nothing that she would have done differently. The skulls sat there with their empty eye sockets staring out at them accusingly. She instinctively knew how much her mother needed to see him. I assume you will be back within half a moon? So why do you think this woman is any different than the others of her kind?". She recognized it immediately and reached out to pick it up. Voices began to rise as the heavy red dyed Mammoth hide drape was drawn over the inner chamber's entrance. 'A fish.' He'd been there most of the day and now the sun was low on the horizon. "I know this is a shock to all of you and I apologize for not telling you before this. The man looked beyond Joharran and saw the two men on pole-carriers and the long line of mounted people. Jonayla, kneeling beside her mother's fever ravaged body cradled her head in the crook of her arm. That was one of the reasons that things had gone so wrong. It didn't take long before they came across nesting ptarmigan. Without the broad descriptions of landscapes and the repetitive mother's song I truly enjoyed this book from beginning to end. He hadn't been able to do anything to help, other than to search with the others. "There are many differences in these people. It looked painful and it reminded her, as it did her mother, that he'd been very close to death and that it had been caused by Brukeval's actions. Her books have sold 34 million copies world-wide in many translations. They were dark gray, almost black. It was after midday by the time mother and daughter returned to the Ninth Cave's summer camp. Jonayla stood as tall as she could and said, "My mother, the Mog-ur of the Others, was trained by Creb's sibling, Iza. The flame flared up brightly as if extra fuel had been added. ", "Ah," the man smiled, "very astute. His face was different than her cousin's mate too, heavier brows and a hawk nose that looked almost like a snout, and a slightly sloped forehead. Ayla had several personal things she wished to do before returning south. He watched as the two people of the Others came toward him, he was relieved to see that they did not notice him. The story telling done for the time being, Artibon, Folrian and Durcan came out into the afternoon light and headed toward the trader's place. Is this true? Six other Mog-urs address me by my name. My name is Latinar," then he gestured to the man next to him, "and this is Tarmidar," then looking around his friend he pointed to the woman with them, "and this is Lamiae. She wanted to communicate with him, to find out more about him and his Clan, but she knew that she would have to be careful, and to move slowly. My son is ALIVE! Lying virtually helpless on the pole-drag, Groog could see the hostile stares coming from the Others and he felt vulnerable and that angered him; he didn't like to feel weak. She could tell instantly that the man had received a serious blow to the head, there was a large red swelling on the right temple and he was unconscious. He'd been up the valley when he'd heard about the visitors, but he hadn't thought too much about it until he reached their summer lodge and saw that Ayla had gone to meet them. "Ayla! "I think you should take better care of yourself, you have so much to do at the gathering. The tall striking woman went to the hearth and served up a wooden bowl of savory elk and vegetable stew, bringing it back to Ayla, along with a spoon carved from some type of dark shiny hardwood. They were at the fire and there were people between the three of them and the Chimu man so he couldn't see them. When she mentioned that her mother had known the Mog-ur named Creb, Groog sat up with a sudden alarmed expression on his face. From all indications there will be The young boy led the way past the cave entrance and along a short path to a natural terrace, the place where the Zelandoni Stone stood. ", The man who was almost standing on top of Brukeval replied, "Yes, I think you're right. Throw him out!'" He hadn't meant to and was about to apologize and admit he didn't know much about Maga Spears. She was different looking and she seemed to like him. "Maybe Cambarre and I should borrow that soap later," Jonayla said, knowingly. Ayla was grateful that someone was taking charge so she could concentrate on Jondalar's wound. Mageb was amazed. Jonayla, being more subtle and knowing what would work better with the spiritual leaders, made a convincing case that if her mother died, no one among the Zelandonia would be as capable as her mother to be able to use the small amount of remaining fungus to find more. At that moment they noticed Melodene coming over. Jonayla's plan for the coming year after the baby came - was to concentrate on building her herd and then trying to breed them. Mongar turned, signaling Brog to bring the Other's Mog-ur to him, then he walked to his place within the cave. "Brukeval could see my acceptance of him, I'm sure of it.
