“During the nights, Alevtina and Tamara gazed into the sky. There are no stars; they awaited the Mother. Sometimes, the Mother would come, remain silent, walk around a bit, and then leave. Sometimes, she would offer some trinket. The women would greet her and then go to sleep. The goat was pleased — the wolves wouldn’t come out of their dens for a while longer.”
