TIT FOR TAT It may seem strange to us that the rumour of Fatia Negra's nocturnal adventure was not spread abroad in these parts, but as a matter of fact nobody did speak of it.

It seemed as if everybody who knew anything about it, died out of the world before he could pass the news on to his neighbour.
The dwellers in the hut in the Ice Valley had vanished without leaving a trace behind them.

The herd, untended by a shepherd, was scattered to the winds by wolves.

Nobody could say what had become of Juon Tare and Mariora.

The person who shewed least of all tell that she knew anything about this midnight adventure was Anicza herself.
