One early afternoon, in all other ways like any other afternoon, her mother takes her out in her stroller, soothing her with a laughing mom’s voice. She tells her about the wind that sings and then softens among the branches and the swallows that compete in skill to skim the pond for a few refreshing drops of water before flying off again in perfect circles into the clouds.

“This rocky section of shore was all cliffs. And where there were cliffs there were usually caves. Indeed, in the moonlight, I noticed many openings and was intrigued. The locals talked of cave walls covered with ancient drawings, rooms deep in the rocks that were used in older times as retreats, temples and burial grounds. I’d explored several caves, mostly on the other side of the island of at Plemont Bay. They were majestic and mysterious, but I had yet to stumble upon a cavern I could be sure had any mystical significance.”
