“Hardly anyone took any notice of the political decisions at the time, but now the storm has arrived and the first thing to collapse over in Hed is the roof of the ice rink. At the same time a man is running through Beartown to save twelve flagpoles. A storm strikes a forest, one ice rink collapses and another remains standing, this will soon drive the inhabitants of two towns into a new battle for resources, and it will finish the way everything seems to finish around here: with violence. So much will have happened by then that we’ll have forgotten how it all started, but it starts here. Now.”

“I don’t know her like you do. She said you think of death, and yet she strikes me as someone afraid of dying. She lives as though she’s running out of time. There’s a desperation about her. Even now, when the long shadow of death is gone, she fears it. And you’re the opposite. You fear living. A pity. You’d be so good at it.”
