La marcha de los pueblos de la montaña
Las cuestas al norte de las montañas eran negras y yermas. La tierra parecía quemada hasta donde alcanzaba la vista. Casi nada crecía allí. Un viento frío barría las laderas y arrastraba nubes de polvo.
Ninguno montaba a Aku. El lomo de un lobo era para la batalla, no para el viaje. Aku debía ser libre de apartarse del camino en pos de presas que solo ella podía oír y oler. Unas pocas veces volvió Read more of this blog post »

“The merest accident of microgeography had meant that the first man to hear the voice of Om, and who gave Om his view of humans, was a shepherd and not a goatherd.

But goats are intelligent, and need to be led.”

“Humans! They lived in a world where the grass continued to be green and the sun rose every day and flowers regularly turned into fruit, and what impressed them? Weeping statues. And wine made out of water! A mere quantum-mechanistic tunnel effect, that'd happen anyway if you were prepared to wait zillions of years. As if the turning of sunlight into wine, by means of vines and grapes and time and enzymes, wasn't a thousand times more impressive and happened all the time...”
