He wasn't feeling good, his leg hurt and he didn't like being restricted to this dwelling all the time. Ayla was determined to be more on her guard in the future. Brog casually asked, "You have mentioned counting words several times. Over the past ten days, many children had come to visit Durcan, even ones he didn't know very well. "Greetings mother," Jonayla smiled at her mother. The Zelandoni of the Second Cave has been of service for more than sixteen summers. Cambarre looked at her in the filtered light that shown through the leaves into their hiding place and remembered the night before. Excitedly, Rubio ran to the outdoor fire surround and stood rigidly in front of the line of waiting children. On an impulse Jonayla leaned over and covered Cambarre's mouth with hers in a long passionate kiss. The Shaman told the survivors that they must trek to the east, away from the water and so they did. My only reason for writing this book is to continue the vibrant saga that Jean created over the past forty years. "I'm sure we would very much like to have more Zelandonii horses," she looked meaningfully at Jonayla. There was something more than just his crazy eyes that made her think he could be as dangerous as Brukeval. If the people didn't want her, would he come away with her? When I was young, I thought the signs came from Ursus the Great Cave Bear, but I now know Ursus is just another manifestation of the Mother and that She has been guiding me all my life.". ", "I hate to leave this place so soon," Jondalar said a bit wistfully. So much so, that although she could hold him in a sling carrier while riding, it was impossible to do anything on foot with his wiggly little body squirming for freedom. He is a man who has always kept the traditions of the Clan. It had been over two moons since they had been with just family and almost that long since they'd shared pleasures. Then pulling violently at Gray's reins she whirled the animal around and galloped back toward the Ninth Cave. Groog stared. He smiled tongue in cheek as he said this and then continued. Mageb admitted they had the right to claim most of the kills, but he would insist they allow his people the three they had killed. I don't have much time but wanted to stop here so that I could discuss some things with both of you; such that you might share with the co-leaders of the Twenty-Ninth Cave and their Zelandoni." "I know you will and it's appreciated. Ayla and the other Doniers wanted to find out more about the Chimu people and this Shaman. Satisfied that the fire would take, Ayla then reached for a Bison hide water bowl and filled it with water. He just needed restorative sleep and to be fed regularly. His leg was now wrapped in a bark and clay cocoon to hold it immobile so the bone would continue to mend and he could get around on the crutches that her father had made for him. It is a good place, with plenty of caves to live in and, at the time, plenty of game to hunt, good water supplies and as it turns out, easy to defend. The earth around them was green with all kinds of growing things bursting with life and she should have been rejoicing at the feelings that a new season brings, but the pain of Wolf's loss and the edgy feeling she now experienced as she approached the area of troubles blunted the vibrant colors and the joyous feelings she would have normally experienced at this time of year. Your stories have actually changed many Zelandonii minds about that," Ayla replied. The Mother could rest.". We could use the meat this winter," Camma said as quietly as possible. Would they? Above the cave mouth, stretching the full length of the opening was the perfect image of a wolf, it was actually carved into the living rock. It had been a long day and everyone was ready to make camp by the time they reached the foothills near Hilltop Holding. Even though every Cave would take with them their share of dried meats, herbs and hides from summer hunts and expeditions, they would all still need to have a successful Harvest Moon time or there would be hunger before winter's end. I wanted it to be a new experience for my daughter. She hadn't had the heart to replace her Wolf with any of the pups her children had found, but this was different. She felt that having Denanna, (who had always been skeptical about the clan and its people), would be helpful in gauging the Zelandonii's overall response to her suggestions. But our life isn't done yet. As he was saying his farewells Artibon asked if he could come with him. Tormaden still hesitated then turned away and disappeared. "With each wave, the water came less inland than before, but by the time it was done, there was nothing left for as far as the eye could see north and south along the shore. Jonayla took her mother to a secluded spot by a nearby stream and helped her out of her bloody clothing. Durc is alive! He did not like to ask his brother for help, for he knew how mean-fisted and selfish his brother was. Even though this book acknowledges that book, it cleans up some of the messes left behind by Jean when she pretty much abandoned the story-line she'd spent 40 years building. Everybody knew that there were troubles in the north and that conflict was on the rise. She was new to riding, but felt safe with his arm around her waist, even safer when he held her tight. "Jondalar, I think you will be up and around in a few days, so I will leave you in Dula's care for the moment and attend this meeting. If a man with a spearthrower threw with all his might, and then walked to the spear he had thrown, then threw it again and repeated this thirty more times, that is how far the water from the sea came into the land. "The older brother was lucky and always brought in enough fish for his family to eat and to trade for things his mate might want. Ayla realized that this might be the first time the Clan leader had been placed in a position to make a decision that he couldn't balance against one made by a predecessor. I highly recommend it to any Jean Auel fan who always wonderedbut what happened next! "No Jondalar, I think we should get back to the Zelandoni lodge as soon as possible. "The carrot changes and becomes soft, even mushy if boiled too long.". It's almost as if fate was urging you to stay with us," Ayla smiled again, reminding Ralev of a story he'd decided to develop about a woman with a beautiful smile. Is this something for the Zelandonia to handle? As Melodene watched Joharran walk forward she had tears in her eyes. That would only give me three days at the most. The Clan was full of people who were different from Ayla in all aspects. Please consider writing book seven. "Groog is from the Clan across the river to the north of Hilltop Rock and he was heading south to find our leaders to lodge a complaint about some of our people and the Chimudonii. Ayla looked up into her old friend's face and saw his acceptance and friendship and was glad of it. Ayla wasn't bringing any of his faults up, so why should he? The hot water had been brought by the southern Donier and placed beside her for use on the wound. Please get someone to take him inside right away and I need hot water to clean the wound.". They both wanted to complete their mission and then make a slow and leisurely journey back to the Summer Meeting, arriving on the appointed day for newly mated couples. "You can count on me for as long as I'm able. Ayla turned her mount and headed back the way they had come. Ayla looked at the woman, "Yes, that's where we'll go then. Although in pain, Jondalar was still conscious, but beginning to go into shock, "Ayla," he whispered though gritted teeth. They have turned evil under the influence of this Shaman. Let his body be eaten by wild animals, none of the Chimu will morn him.". If you want to give him to the southern Zelandoni, then I agree, the sooner, the better.". She needed to establish herself as an equal to this Mog-ur if she was to accomplish anything for their future with her people. Many would not want to as they didn't know him, but those that did would want to honor the man by seeing him helped on his way to the Spirit World. She also tried her hand at various other professions like credit manager and also a technical writer. It suddenly came to the boy that important decisions and ceremonies would take place here that would affect all of them. Standing tall and commanding, Ralev dramatically spread his arms before the people, then called out in a loud voice, "I have a story to tell!" She was grateful to the Zelandoni of the White Cave for his insight and willingness to honor Wolf. Maybe that was why she was so special and had so many talents for just one person. "I can see so much more from up here too. Enjoy it while you can. During this moon phase the winter cold has fastened its grip on the land and nights are at their longest and darkest. He looked over at Jonayla to see how she felt and saw that she looked happy with the idea. It was a sling weapon and stones seemed to have magically appeared in her hands. "That is an important function, you must be proud of your father," Ayla continued, enjoying her discussion with this bright young girl. She would have to be very careful and keep her eyes and ears alert for another person. The Fifth continued, "The story tellers spoke to the people of 'Ayla and Jondalar,' their travels and adventures and the good they achieved before they came to us. Visitors to the Chimu caves were rare and winter was not far off, so hearing news from other people and places was always a special treat. Jean Marie Auel, ne Untinen (born February 18, 1936 in Chicago, Illinois) is an American writer. 'These are shiny and very rare. "The First Zelandoni before me said that the Zelandonii people had taken this area away from the Clan back in ancient times," Ayla explained. What Ayla was seeing at that moment, the only thing she was seeing, were the times she and Jondalar and the children had been happy and Wolf had been alive and they had all been young and carefree. Then recomposing herself, she took his roaming hand in hers and held it. She'd been so worried about her son that she hadn't wanted to leave his side. "Yes, that could be. Watching the herd until the last one was out of sight; Jonayla finally reined Gray around and began the ride back to First Place. I read these books a long time ago on the recommendation of my husband. Jonayla asked suspiciously. He would stay with this female Mog-ur and learn what she could teach him of the Others. I'm from Two Wolf Lodge of Old Valley Cave, son of Ramacol, leader of Two Wolf Lodge, brother to Kemordan who was leader before him." Joharran of the Ninth Cave has been in charge most of the time while I was tending Jondalar's wound and Joharran was assisted by Trivodan, leader of the First Cave of the south and Manvelar who leads the Third Cave. "Willamar?" She knew instinctively that this was a gift from the Mother and that it was a singular honor. They had been performing the daily tasks of working hides, grinding grains and carving utensils, but now set them aside as Dula sat down with them to tell them about her adventures. Ayla answered, "Because I was taking Groog with me. He put the bowl into his boat and rowed out to sea with it to where the village fishermen were hauling in their catch of fish. With that the two men - who thought and lived lives that were barely understood by each other - turned and walked away to their separate lands. We would appreciate your hospitality and a place to care for our wounded. Even now as Zelandoni she still thought of herself as 'Ayla' and encouraged Jondalar to continue to use her name. I've seen it, but it probably hasn't been cared for all that well, not as well as you would have done. It was a show of respect and love. Jondalar didn't say anything. The only problem is that his burial clothes are back at his home cave. Melodene was still astride Willamar's horse, seated in front of him. She knew that she had been called by the Mother to lead the Zelandonia and that should be enough to satisfy her. "The reason I have put myself forward for the burden of First Zelandoni, is that I know exactly what it takes to hold a people together in good and not so good times. Ayla had noticed that the procession had not run across any fresh human tracks to indicate that any group of people had traveled the river trail recently, so she was pretty sure that they would be the first group to reach Old Valley from the southern route. Finally he said, "You must come north and meet my Mog-ur. Many men don't see when a woman sends those signals, so sometimes you have to let subtlety go and just tell them how you feel.". Even so, they had to try. ", "Yes," Dula signed and knelt beside the prostrate hunter. By the morning of the new day, everyone had heard the story of how their First Zelandoni had killed a hunting cave lion all by herself with nothing but a Clan spear. I don't want to head into the forest to the south on foot if we don't have to. As the group reached the edge of the thick forest Ayla took charge. Ayla spent some time with the boy; she wanted him to understand that they were special friends. What had she just said? The summer was coming to an end and within a full moon phase they would begin to see dustings of snow in the mountains. "Wait Jonayla, he's a flathead. These Others lived differently, but looking around the dwelling, he couldn't fault it. Ayla moved over to kneel beside her daughter who was still lying on the ground, stunned from the rough treatment she'd received. The Second Cave had been reoccupied, but many from there had heard about the visiting Zelandonii and had come to see and hear them. It is not up to us what happens to them, we're just supposed to bring them in. Are they more contentious or less intelligent? In addition to their belongings, they were bringing back more winter stores than ever before. Support; something I will need now more than ever. They followed the Chimu man single file on foot, leading their horses because the path - a different one from the night before, Ayla realized, was no more than a game trail. They were my ideal, what I wished I was. ", Melodene shyly asked, "You don't mind that we're trying?". You will discuss this with the people of your caves?" She was desperate and the other's manner was reassuring enough for her to place complete trust in her. Amazingly, given that Auel is now accepted by scientists as a creditable authority on her subject, she didn't start out to write about the Ice Age in Europe. "The Shaman will not see you if you do not come now!" It was also decided that Groog would accompany them so he could lead them to his Clan. Jonayla hurried from the stream, leaving the horses to drink their fill and came to stand beside her mate. "Yes, but it will certainly be something to look forward to," the Zelandoni said. "You're stirring up trouble with the Clan and it's spilling over into Zelandonii territory. "I was hoping to visit our little pool again before we left, but I guess you're right. By the time mother and father left the Mamutoi, he was grown up enough to recognize her as his pack leader. I know that I'll want to change some things in the dwelling that Cambarre and I will be calling home. Sure enough, there was a cave opening beside tree in the hill, so he went inside and there was Havoe, sitting by a small fire, warming his hands. "So my question to you is this; will you support me in these things? She placed her fingers against his neck where life's beat was to be found. Immediately he saw a trampled area just off the trail. What was he seeing? The Zelandoni led her down the gently sloping floor and into the main cavern, pointing out the work that had already been done and talked about his plans for the other areas. Then suddenly there was a sound like thunder only deeper and it came from the ground, not the sky. This crossword clue Jean Auel heroine was discovered last seen in the September 21 2021 at the Eugene Sheffer Crossword. He was taller than Crazy Eyes and much more muscular, but it was obvious by his body language, that he was lower in rank. Almost like giving up. Also, he traveled light and therefore could take advantage of any opportunity that might arise to hunt along the way. "You can smell them, they smell strongly of horse. I wasn't even born to the Zelandonii people. She was grateful to the strong solidly built man. You're the woman I want. Jonayla watched as her mother washed coltsfoot, nettles and pigweed and stuffed the bird's cavities with them, sprinkling in some herbs from her medicine bag, then nestling the fresh young eggs in the center of each cavity. Crazy Eyes looked at the blonde woman and then at the big blonde man sitting on his horse beside her. I heard about your mother's Clan son and I've also heard some of the nasty remarks from some people. Durcan and his friends were caught up in the fate of these people. Cambarre and Jondalar were at the men's fa'lodge and Jondalar felt the time was right for his question. How could anyone kill a child and then display its tiny skull as if it were a trophy. Willamar planned to skin it as soon as he could get it back to the Ninth Cave's summer camp. "I like you Cambarre," she said. ''Not just different coloured hair, or eyes, or skin. I could go on for hours with questions about different characters from the books! It is true that there was one bad man in the group of people who saved my life and brought me up. They felt that evil corruption was dealt with by incantations from a Mog-ur, not necessarily just medicinal herbs. Once, when tamed horses were few, they had been kept in a corral at the southern edge of the Ninth Cave's great ledge, but when more of the people began to tame their own horses, it soon became obvious that there would not be enough room for all of them so close to the main enclosure. I first read the series about 15 years ago and was completely hooked after the first. She stood before them with her arms crossed, looking down at them, again making eye contact with each of her fellow spiritual leaders, waiting for their response. This is hard to believe. All eyes were on her as she ducked around the hanging hide that covered the opening and disappeared beyond. She told the assembly that to accomplish the coming together of both the northern and southern Zelandonii, some changes would be needed. He had only seen the one his mother possessed. Each step the beast took sounded like a hundred snakes were being disturbed and the smell of carrion was in the air. Let me walk forward and call out," Melodene offered. He was enthusiastic about their abilities to aid a hunter. I love you like a sister, not like a mate. She waved at the other people who had turned out to see them off. Even years ago when he'd first met her, he'd thought of her as Zelandoni, maybe even more than Zelandoni. Jondalar and Durcan looked to each other then back to Rubio. The Women just stood and stared in horror at the spear that had been shoved into Atta and they could see his dead, agony-distorted face. "Doroban, greetings," he called out to one of the men standing near the cave entrance, wide-eyed. They were trying to be quiet, but she could hear an occasional moan from her mother and once a surprised gasp from her father and rhythmic noises that made it obvious to her what they were doing. It was almost like magic, one moment the man had been part of the rock then he separated himself and took living form. "The First Zelandoni requested that I answer any questions about us that you might have. Trotting to the edge of the campsite, he settled down to do some serious gnawing. She knew she had many good friends, and that she should count herself a lucky person. ", "I agree with my mate, you are family and you have brought much to the community," Proleva said. "Thank you Zelandoni," she said, trying to smile. Hindus believe Mt. No one else heard him and then he was dead and no one will ever hear him again. What if they decide to become wild men too?". They all knew that this year they would be taking a different trail to the northern holding and the Summer Meeting encampment. Brukeval, now gagged and his hands tied behind his back, stared at Ayla with an angry frown. "I feel that we have been friends for a long time now. Actually the tea was a bit overpowering, but she could see Zolana was proud of it and she knew it would be a restorative drink in the cold of winter, so she drank it all and asked for a second cup. This is a man, not an animal. The other Zelandoni joined in. Ayla was happy. If everyone united against this Shaman and his followers, they would have no choice but to either give up or go away. First, I must speak with the cave leaders to let them know what I will be doing and see that Jondalar and Jonayla are all settled. We will have an empty dwelling that was used by Jondalar's apprentices. Following Jonayla's instructions, Cambarre and Camma, hugging the neck of their horses, slowly moved into the open meadow and waited as Jonayla moved into position on the far side of the field. "Jonayla," Cambarre stepped up beside his mate. Ayla realized then that these travelers must have been walking for the better part of the morning. It became darker and the overhanging ledge began to reach closer to the ground. Once I understood that, I was hooked like a fish.". Yes, there needs to be a book of closure. These meetings on the trail had slowed the procession further but had built solidarity of purpose. Startled and instantly snarling, the predator hunkered down to attack Durcan. In our recent confrontation with your Shaman, my mate was injured and I need to get him inside in a secure place so he won't have to be moved for a while. During the thanksgiving ceremony and feast the new mothers sat in a place of honor as the people of the cave came over to them to complement them and their new babies. Jonayla recognized the young man from her previous trips to Hill Top. Ayla murmured. I know this will work and I see generations of our people reaping the harvest that we sow here, in this place and time. Ayla pulled him to a standing position using a tug on his neck rope. Rubio quickly dried himself and donned his ceremonial garb, a knee length tunic made from softened deer skin. He felt what he was watching was a powerful expression of the younger Donier's abilities to control nature. Then, as the female of the Others continued, he thought he recognized her. "To test her submissiveness, Atta commanded Armuna to go with his personal guards and pleasure them, which she did. You're a little thinner than I was and maybe a tiny bit shorter, but then I was two years older than you when I was mated. Those you call 'flatheads' are also searching the forests for Jonayla and Cambarre. No one mentioned anything about that because they all thought it would be a good name, especially Jondalar who, even after all these years, still missed his brother as if his loss were only yesterday. But I was also of the Mog-ur and had Mog-ur memories so the new Mog-ur began to train me when I reached maturity. The first Zelandoni of the southern caves stood immediately. Two Clan meetings put together would not match the number of the Others in just this one cave! It is good that he will recover. You are the most beautiful horse in the world and everyone will be envious of you when they see how beautiful you are." Since the setting is sometime between 30,000 to 35,000 years ago, I had no alternative but to allow for a shorter lifespan for both people and animals, therefore Jonayla's mating at the tender age of 17, (or even earlier) would have been a reality of the time. When that man menaced the Other's Mog-ur, Groog moved forward to intercept him. She turned back and scrutinized the area ahead of them but saw nothing. She was the one who led the Zelandonii here. He didn't think that he'd ever seen anyone better with a sling than her. Well now you're just a weak woman, with nothing to say about anything!". The men said you were at the lake so I came to hear how you fared while away. He wished he was a better person and that they had never had those rifts. "If somehow I could have just fit in as Jondalar's mate I would have been happy. Long before J.K. Rowling, Dan Brown, Stephanie Meyer or Stieg Larsson, Jean M. Auel (pronounced ''owl'') was a publishing phenomenon. She was different looking and she seemed to like him. It became obvious to me if I did nothing, we would all be in the thrall to this Shaman and his Hunt Leader and there would soon be nothing left of the communities that my father had nurtured into being. Durcan had always been a popular and accomplished child, the people wouldn't take her past out on her boy. Have you decided what you're going to call this little one? Why is this so?". As I'm sure you know, if you have too many people in one place for too long the resources begin to become depleted. He stood and whistled loudly to alert the others and was gratified to see two of his men jump up with their weapons at the ready. The heavy stabbing spear had given him new confidence. He is already very inquisitive and has caught a mouse in our lodge, so that is what we are calling him. Her mother had been with her father almost non-stop since they'd arrived at First Place. He hadn't meant to and was about to apologize and admit he didn't know much about Maga Spears. Soon Ayla joined her daughter in the drying treatment of their clothing. One of the two horses she had traded to the Chimu leader Camma was standing contentedly munching on some harvested dried grass. "Mother, father Cambarre and I have decided what we will name our child," she announced. They had all seen their bloodied First Zelandoni riding through camp with an injured boy, his dead father and the cave lion that had killed him. "Then I can take Star away with me?" He didn't want her to say anything that would spoil this moment. 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. Rubio looked uncomfortable. He looked at Melodene again and asked, "Where is Monkam? So it is with the Mother's Love. This is how it would be for the duration of the trip. They talked about his father and Eyzinah joined in the conversation. Go check on the man over there." "Armuna put the spear she was holding at his manhood and said between gritted teeth, "Now YOU get to feel what it's like," then she thrust the spear's sharpened point in to the place between the leader's legs that had attacked her time and again. ", "I didn't say, because I don't know Durc. The first two were apparitions of The Earth Mother and Lumi, Her lover. "You look so grown up Durc. The sun was slanting into late morning before the two women saw the smoke from Hilltop holding. ", Ralev, who was a very astute individual, frowned. The leaders and their Doniers gathered around the cooking fire to listen. "We have two leaders as you do, one for the caves and one for spiritual things, which do you want to talk to?" As they reached the mammoth hide drape that covered the opening to the Zelandoni lodge, her mother turned to her and said, "Daughter, why don't you go and talk to your friends and see what they are saying. From somewhere in the dark night a flute started up, then also from afar the beat of a drum. Even though she wouldn't want to live this simply after having lived with the Zelandonii for so many years, it did bring back pleasant memories of belonging and the loved ones who had loved her. We have very little skill with horses. He hugged her to him and vowed, "You won't die unless I'm already dead. What he hadn't known before this was that she was now First Zelandoni. Looking at her friends, Ayla said with meaning in her voice, "I look forward to seeing each of you again. Cambarre knew a bit more than the other hunters, being the mate of the First Zelandoni's daughter. "I loved Ranec and I admired Tricie and I welcome you to the Zelandonii Summer Meeting Ralev, and those who follow you." I am willing to make the difficult choices that may become necessary in eliminating the threat to our people.". "For years I've wondered where you went. He looked up toward the cave opening and yelled, "Rubio, come here boy!". That would allow three hunters an entire day of training in hunting from horseback.". ", "My mother tells me that your women can't hunt or use weapons. But in her pride she told her women to hold him hostage. They could also see the back of a man sitting cross-legged at the far side of the flames with his head bowed. "This infusion isn't placed on the wound, but is offered as a drink? She felt her head swimming. Ayla and Jondalar could see the sense in that and didn't try to change his mind about coming with them. It would be impossible to track Wolf, but Jondalar knew his daughter and mate would head by the shortest route to Old Valley.
