", Ayla leaned over to place a few more sticks on the fire, then said, "Well daughter, we should turn in, I want to get an early start tomorrow and we can discuss this more in the morning, if you want to.". His plan was to get in front of them and then to yell and wave his spear in one hand and strips of hide in the other and then run toward the animals. Please consider turning it on! Support; something I will need now more than ever. Cambarre remained silent as he heard her challenge Brukeval and watched as he walked over to her and threatened her and her mother and any other Zelandonii he might come across with bodily harm. Ayla looked around her and not seeing the person she sought, asked out loud, "Where is the Zelandoni who is first among the southern holdings? Even the thought of her vulnerability at that confrontation made her flush with anger. He is a man who has a sickness in his mind for which there is no cure that I know of. It's big enough to accommodate your whole troupe. If they resist we will overpower them no matter what must be done to do so. When people found out how easy it was to shape the stone, those who enjoyed the process took it further and squared the walls of some of the caves, smoothing them and even painting on them as you see here. The column stopped, letting Duroban and the First Zelandoni walk forward. I very much appreciate your help. Once Cambarre arrived she would want to start south immediately. I just can't imagine living without a wonderful animal friend like Wolf. Ayla turned to Manvelar, "I think we should send someone back to the Summer Meeting to let Tormaden and his people know what has happened here in case he wants to send some of his people back here to reclaim their holding and to see what damage has been done. Durcan knew that there were some adults still talking about the fitness of his mother to be The First Zelandoni because she'd had a child with a flathead man. "Cambarre. "No wait! Although the novels written by her are full of ethnobotanical accuracies and anthropological authenticities, many of the recent archaeological works have suggested that some of the details mentioned in the novels related to the prehistorical facts are inaccurate whereas a few others are just fictional. Jondalar was beautiful then, she hadn't known that another being could be so beautiful. I read a lot and these are by far my favorite ever! He was willing to withdraw if the others were as impressive as she, but had to save face here and now, so he named his experience and how many souls he was responsible for and how many years he had served the people. After that summer, many of the people were less judgmental about being different and eventually they became more understanding and accepting of people that were different looking, all because Ayla had shown them the way with that little boy of mixed spirits. "This infusion isn't placed on the wound, but is offered as a drink? What harm could there be in letting his brother have the bowl for a while? "I think that we have never before had a leader like you, Zelandoni. Brukeval has changed out of all recognition," Ayla said as they looked at each other. Even though not born a Zelandonii, in her case the gifts of knowledge she shared with the Zelandoni were so significant that everyone, even those who would never voice it, agreed that she was a high status spiritual leader. Jondalar turned toward the leader of Old Valley, "Ramacol, do you think you could spare some travel food so we won't have to stop along the way to hunt? He signed, ignoring Ayla, "What do you expect us to do for these Others who have caused us nothing but suffering? I was happy that I would be having a child. It would be too dangerous in the dark to continue on the ridge path. They would stop on the way and leave some of the people from the Nineteenth Cave at their cave to finish repairs to the damage caused by the false Shaman followers and to prepare for their people's return from the Summer Meeting. "My name is Eyzinah, and I thank you for what you've done First Zelandoni. "You can all leave if that's what you want to do," Ayla said in a strained voice. ", Brukeval stood and looked at the tall blonde man. "No, not Wymez!" They were mounted on horses and had the advantage of numbers. ", "Yes," Durcan said doubtfully. He just hoped the talk would do some good. He'd been the first of her kind she'd ever met and since then, having met many men of her kind, she was still convinced that he was the best example of a man there was to be found. ", Ayla was shocked. Or at least like those of Lion Camp. "According to mother, the Clan men think that a weapon that has been touched by a woman is cursed and can no longer be used to hunt with.". I know that the Donier of Horsehead Rock as well as Elder Hearth have put themselves forward, but you're the obvious choice. Ayla turned and looked into the other Donier's troubled eyes, "The Mother spoke to you, couldn't you tell?" What was 'she' doing here? She needed the Clan leader's help to close off the northern escape route but could expect a closed mind, even with the support of their Mog-ur. That had to be it. That's when he should have cut his losses and traveled east. Ayla opened her eyes. She knew how impatient youth could be, and she wanted them to remember there were others to consider, not just their family. "Camma, the leader of the three caves in the north, expressed an eagerness to bring her people into the Zelandonii community. "I-I'm considered a bad woman by most of my people. Jonayla smiled at that, she wasn't upset - she could even understand it - knowing if their place were reversed, she'd have done the same. If we pace ourselves we should be back at First Place by tomorrow morning or if you want to stop during the night to rest, we'd still be there by mid-day." She wondered when that had started. Wouldn't you say that he could be described as filled with hatred for them? To have people who acknowledged her as part of their family was secretly more important to her than life itself. Not that he was really surprised that the Mother had spoken to her. He was sure. Melodene lost hers and laments the loss. Our unique property has 5 well-appointed residences for overnight accommodations for up to 32 guests. ", Jonayla added, "I think Melodene will be returning with us to the Ninth Cave when we leave the Summer Meeting. Some could have been out hunting. This was more immediate because it was taking place in their midst. "I'll return right away. He wondered, if the situation were reversed, would he have done the same thing for her or even for her mate 'Jonlar'? She pulled her own tunic off over her head, removed her leggings and loincloth then stepped into the pool. He watched as the woman turned toward him and signed, "These are my children. That is why they threw spears at her. As you know, they raised me, I know their ways and I respect them. Durcan yelped in fright. Groog stopped with a sigh and looked at the fire burning in the hearth. she repeated. Ayla's heart increased its pace at her man's unmistakable signal, she had wondered in the back of her mind when they might pick up their lives as they had been before Jondalar had been wounded. Jondalar was walking back with the woman who was so distraught that she could barely walk unaided. ", "A new version you say! Ayla had bowed her head and closed her eyes as the Fifth Cave's Zelandoni spoke. These places were so peaceful and serene that at every turn someone was suggesting this spot or that spot would be the perfect place to make camp. "Can you really believe that?" Earth's Children were blessed. He even confirmed it at the end. I don't mean that I resented a woman's place, but I didn't feel an equal for some reason. Sometimes I'm amazed at the gifts that The Great Earth Mother provides Her children. Cambarre noted that she was riding bareback and that she didn't have any hunting gear with her. My brother and I found Durc at the corral. Ayla raised her left hand, "I am going now." There would now be a home place from which his spirit could reach into the Spirit World, a centered place of security that would be familiar and would lend confidence to Brukeval's spirit, allowing it to take the bold step to travel to the Spirit World beyond. The group had traveled through the rough terrain, meeting up with each other on the far side of the broken ground only to discover their Zelandoni hadn't made it through. And it has been climbing every since. She had hoped that she wouldn't have to involve him but it was essential that the leaders know what would happen if the violence was left unchecked. Jean Auel, ne Jean Marie Untinen, (born February 18, 1936, Chicago, Illinois, U.S.), American novelist who was best known for her Earth's Children series, which centres on Neanderthals and Cro-Magnons in prehistoric Europe. "Well, I will readily admit that you have learned your craft. He was making it impossible for anyone coming upon him in that position to hold back. "I was lucky and found spinach and even some dandelion and basswood down by the brook when I was refilling the water skins, so we'll have a really good meal this evening. I doubt that she leads the men, you must have been mistaken or deceived.". "Greetings First Zelandoni," the other woman said, smiling. ", Ayla opened the folded hide and saw there was little more than a finger's length of fungus left. Protect Willamar and Melodene!" It just amazes me that we might never have known each other without the trouble those two bad Zelandonii created in our territory. Mongar began to turn away, then stopped. At night they would have torches attached to poles to give light that shone down on them from above, making it seem almost like day. he signed, now looking at Ayla. While you do the cooking, I'll unload the horses and hobble them by the brook so they can graze and easily reach the water. She really did love him and didn't want him to feel hurt. Jean Marie Auel (/al/; ne Untinen; born February 18, 1936) is an American writer who wrote the Earth's Children books, a series of novels set in prehistoric Europe that explores human activities during this time, and touches on the interactions of Cro-Magnon people with Neanderthals. "From that day forward Armuna was the leader of the S'Attaro people. Better to deal with her at his hearth. He would just have to get used to the faces these Others made. He moved closer, gently pushing her back against the moss covered bank, kneading her soft warm globes as they kissed. He couldn't be sure, but he knew as dusk fell that if it was a bonfire beacon on the other side of the valley, he would be able to see the flame as the sky grew darker. Any help would be welcome with so many of them to deal with. Why would the woman leave her home and why was she so upset? "I know mother, but Cambarre and I wanted to do it. Ayla turned her mount and headed back the way they had come. He caught movement out of the corner of his eye. "It is the color of blood, the color of life. Then I heard stories about these same two people from the Storytellers and I compared the stories with each other. [3] She is of Finnish descent, the second of five children of Neil Solomon Untinen, a housepainter, and Martha (ne Wirtanen) Untinen. They were able to salvage the tent hide, which was pretty beaten up, but would serve them still. Then Jonayla signed to Cambarre to look at the horizon. ", "I can see that your Groog is of mixed spirits. She needed to meditate, to prepare for what was to come. Jonayla took her place sitting across from Groog so that he could see her talk in sign to interpret what the others in the room said. Between the sight of blood and the scent of cave lion, Summer Child was nearly frantic with fear. But now, with a powerful shaman to lead the way, they soon became the ones who made the rules and told other people what to do. The Zelandoni of Wolf Cave knelt down on one side of his leader while Jondalar knelt down beside his mate on the other, taking her in his arms and rocked with her, gently, speaking soothing words into her ear. She needed to make up her mind once and for all about this new leader. The Zelandoni wasn't sure about the recipe when he was first told that it was a favorite of a Mog-ur, from the Clan, but as soon as he bit into the tender bird and the flavorful juices were released he sighed with satisfaction, smacking his lips in appreciation. If he'd had a concept for it, he would have called what he was feeling a sense of foreboding, yet it was tinged with a strange unnerving hope. Your daughter is quite a woman. "Yes Jondalar, I would like that very much." He put the Snake Bowl in his older brother's hands and said, 'Snake Bowl, give forth a feast.' Then I can withdraw my candidacy and return home to Jondalar and Durcan and the Ninth Cave.'. At first Cambarre was a bit surprised at how well Jonayla's family was organized when traveling. Then Jonayla was walking toward the man. Jonayla was still standing by the fire when Lorala came to stand next to her. Ayla replied with feeling, then she turned and walked back to her waiting family members. Farewells made, Ayla rose from her cross-legged sitting position beside the Old Valley campfire in her usual smooth motion that always made those around her notice her agility. Let me see our little visitor," he said, stopping in front of the young couple. Ayla explained that with her knowledge of his language, she hoped to find out, from his point of view, what was happening and why the Clan were attacking the Chimudonii who lived in the north. At least until the forests had time to recover and the game came back to the area. "It is not good that the Others come to our cave like this. She then looked around her at the faces of all the others. Jondalar! "Yes, we have been hearing stories about confrontations across the river to the north of us, but this is the first time we've become involved in it," the Donier said as he knelt down to have a closer look at the man the First Zelandoni was tending. I miss him so. The Zelandonia were responsible for tracking the movement of the sun and moon, which represented the Mother and Her lunar mate Lumi. The man blended into the scenery. Ayla turned back to the campfire. Ayla also signed for Jonayla to stop, adding an imperative so that her daughter knew that she meant it. As she jumped down from her horse he could see her muscled body flex and knew there was still quite a reserve of strength she could tap if necessary. No one had missed the fact they had a flathead with them. The Snake Bowl gave them a fine new dwelling and enough food to eat and more to trade. "I have a lot on my mind just now Jonayla," Ayla said, to change the subject. He'd felt that she was too manly and spoke to him with too much force. Yes indeed, supervision is my purpose in life these days." Over the past ten days, many children had come to visit Durcan, even ones he didn't know very well. She was worth waiting for and he should have controlled his urges with her. Maybe you should take a swim in the lake to wake up.". Cambarre could hardly believe that any man would do this to a woman. "That's amazing, I was sure they would all be long gone after what happened. The realization that she had won Groog's full respect warmed her. The old man put his arm around her waist and pulled her close. No reason to give them any information. Durcan had used his spearthrower to good effect and had taken down a Capon in flight which was plucked, gutted and over a roasting fire within an hour of their making camp. The Zelandoni of the White Cave reached out to take the pouch. They'll kill me. She has captured the leader of these wild men as a show of good faith and has brought him to you. This answers first letter of which starts with A and can be found at the end of A. In his experience no female had ever stared him in the eye before and to have one doing it now was unnerving. Willamar and Melodene rode away, dragging the pole-drag holding the dead cave lion. On one hand she loved her Clan son Durc and was proud of him. I know I'm an old man, many would think I am too old to take a mate and that may be, but we have decided to stay together; Melodene has consented to come back with me to the Ninth Cave. What if they'd been attacked by some followers of that false Shaman? They were a small cave of twenty three individuals and could use Madroman's daily labor. Ayla knew they would not be overheard from this distance. Having been told these troublemakers were only twenty or so strong, I thought a combined party of seventy hunters would be enough. It was important that they had not reached puberty; as a mature person who was not Zelandoni would pollute the ceremonies with their untrained adult passions. She would miss this place, maybe someday she and Jondalar could return, just the two of them, for a few days. He already looked younger and certainly was acting more interested in life than only a few days ago. He couldn't help but think of the children that would have been his, and the pleasure he would have making those children with her. There was no subtlety about her. There was movement from higher up the hill. She tried to sound confident and even felt that way sometimes when the Mother guided her. ", "Your father is handsome," Folrian said. 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'll make it up to you when we get back.". Ayla could see she didn't have her daughter's full attention. ", Jonayla responded, "Greetings Groog, I think she will be busy with the leaders and visiting Zelandonia that have arrived. The sacred place his people maintained was situated at the highest point in the eastern hills of Old Valley and was recognized by all the Zelandonii people as the Mother's Sacred Mountain. she shouted. Ayla was glad they had gone on journeys as a family, away from the Summer Meeting each year. Ayla felt a pang of guilt that it had been so long since she'd looked into the startling green eyes of her friend and extended family member. It couldn't have been thunder. As the adult members of the boy's Lodge disappeared around a rock outcropping in the distance, Rubio heard a shout of warning from Jamicon, another boy who had been assigned to announce the processions arrival. "Joharran or one of our hunters should have found our horses by now and will be searching for us. They may use different names for Her, but it isn't hard to see who they proclaim and worship. "You could just as easily be a candidate yourself. Is that your intention? No wait, Mongar, call the hunters to us here, so all may hear. She would offer prayers for her two good and faithful friends, one human and one animal, both so important to her that she would never forget them for as long as she lived. Then she pulled the ties loose on her leggings and pulled them off. After some time, mother and daughter walked arm in arm away from the terrace. I too lost my son, the difference was that he didn't leave his people, as in the legend. The novel was appreciated by many readers worldwide and it went on to win a number of nominations foe literary awards like the Best First Novel by the American Booksellers Association. Newly mated couples left immediately after the ceremony was over. Willamar was the first to spot them. "'I want your stone bowl with the snake painted on it,' replied the young man. Give me pure, fine, white salt.'. I know that I'll want to change some things in the dwelling that Cambarre and I will be calling home. Approaching the guest hearth through the crowd, Jondalar recognized Robonar, hunt leader of the Lanzadonii. They were both smiling brightly, enjoying each other's company. I think they were satisfied with our past spiritual leader, but I also think they would be happy to have someone from their area as First Zelandoni for a change. That would be something!" We have traveled since before the end of winter to reach you and later we will go even further west until we reach the land's end. Like a Clan man, he was well muscled, so much so, that it would be pointless to try to overpower him. He still couldn't quite believe all the nastiness that had flowed from Brukeval's mouth directed toward Ayla. It will be alright to sit up, but don't flap your arms or make any sounds unless the horses start to head back your way. She had golden colored hair. As far as the Zelandonia are concerned, we're happy with your leadership and we support you.". Jaradal brushed it aside, having had his fun. It gave her a vague sense of power over him that she could make him so aroused just by being naked near him. It is the earliest time that widespread flowers of the warmer weather begin to show. I see now how they could use their knowledge to fool others into believing they were something they were not. I don't want to go. Within moments the hunters broke away to take up their weapons and filed out of the cave. I'll go there now. If he admitted it, he did admire the First Zelandoni and would indeed like to travel with her. She only hoped there were no taboos with these people that would stop any of her treatments. It is good that he will recover. "What do you want Cambarre? She felt that her family should have away-time, just being on their own, and these experiences had helped their children grow more self-reliant and had nurtured a more mature attitude. Finally they came to one trader who made spear shafts. While searching the area they ran into some of Madroman's followers and there was a brief fight. Once up, they broke camp quickly and ate travel cakes while mounted on their horses, moving on before the sun had even crested the surrounding hills. "Yes, a most remarkable medicine. There were other women of the Ninth Cave also pregnant, but theirs was the latest news and it was traditional that the women of the Cave would comment and give good wishes and make a fuss in general over a newly pregnant woman. Ayla paused, looking around the chamber at her fellow Doniers. The young couple circled around to face the people and Ayla announced, "They are now Cambarre and Jonayla of the Ninth Cave of the Zelandonii.". They rode in single file by rank. Ayla looked down at Jondalar. This allowed the animal some freedom of movement but did not allow it to wander away. Ayla flushed, feeling uncomfortable with all eyes turned on her, but she was determined not to show it if possible. Thank you.". Ayla knew her daughter would love to be assigned the task of traveling to the Chimu right after her Matrimonial with Cambarre as part of the half-moon trial period required for newly mated couples. Jonayla and Cambarre were the youngest couple and one of three couples who were mating for the first time. Cambarre continued to speak as if nothing had changed and at first Jonayla didn't know how to react. Then the young female 'Jonayla' came into the enclosure, followed by the female Mog-ur. Jondalar took Ayla's hand and they retired to the lodge to be alone with each other. "I don't think we will run across anyone, it's a big forest and we're not covering much of it, but you never know. Groog hadn't understood a word of what had been said, but he did understand these were the people that had killed twelve of his Clan and the one who looked a little like a man of the Clan and who was making lots of loud disagreeable noises was their leader. He looked up into the brilliant blue eyes of the girl of the Others. We don't see them causing violence in our territory. The child was a boy of maybe seven or eight and blood was smeared all over his right side. They rode up to Ayla and Jondalar and stopped to see what the delay meant. "Dula will discuss a cure with you," he signed, signaling the Clan Medicine Woman to move forward and assist the injured man. She had met Ralev's Armuna who was Attaroa in real life and Wolf had killed her to save Jondalar's life, but she also knew the stylized tale was more fantasy than reality. The whole experience had been jarring and stressful, so Ayla was grateful when they were finally riding south and away from the Nineteenth Cave. Jonayla never thought it possible that the Zelandoni from the south would become a friend to her mother. Females were not Mog-urs and Mog-urs spoke to the Spirits and everyone knew that women were never to even look at a Spirit Ceremony, much less represent the people to the Spirits. At that time there had been a small altercation between the Chimu and the flatheads. He slowed his horse, waiting for her. ", Cambarre smiled broadly then whispered back, "How many children do you want?". ", Jonayla closed her eyes and snuggled close to her strong young lover. I don't want anyone going out alone while we are still in this area.". It was late morning before the first horses took to the trail south. I will follow you shortly. ", They both saw the Zelandoni then. Rubio noticed that the Donier was looking at no one but him. ', "'No,' said the poor man. There were three other men working there that day as well as the Zelandoni and the First Acolyte of the Nineteenth Cave. He says both are attacking them and even killing some of them." I could never think of him as a close friend again. I know my accent makes me stand out and those very things you spoke of made me stand out when I first came here. he asked. Would they come to resent her? Proleva laughed. The Donier of the Third Cave again turned to Ayla, "No matter what happens, I think you should be the one to mediate between the Clan and the affected caves in the north," having said that, the Third suggested that they turn in for the night. They would surely be the largest group in attendance again this year. The longer it stays unwashed, the more time the lion's poison has to work on him.". Ayla remained silent, watching the other Zelandonia and the leaders as they interacted with Groog through her daughter. You were in that bed beside me and I thought we would both die.". ", "You know," Ayla said, "another wolf might not be like our Wolf. I love The Earths Children Series, & reread them every year, they are my Favorite books.Will there be anymore? He looked over at Jonayla to see how she felt and saw that she looked happy with the idea. As she sat through the night of fever, she realized that it would probably not abate. As planned, they had left the remaining fifteen to guard Hilltop Holding, but available to be summoned if needed. Auel started the Earths Children series of six novels with The Clan of the Cave Bear, which appeared in 1980 and spawned a 1986 film adaptation. That reason alone should be enough to make you our new First Zelandoni. The cave she comes from has almost as many people living there as all the Clan in all seven caves and it is only one of many caves. How could I not honor them? He held out his hand to Ayla in a gesture that they should leave. Jonayla said excitedly, "I think we should try to catch some horses. The strong spirits that it contains will keep you and yours safe so long as you carry it. "Oh yes, and my mother assists Denanna who is leader. Ayla stopped her charge as she reached the wall of trees that surrounded the meadow. She ignored those people, not caring what they thought as she strode confidently toward the Zelandoni lodge with her daughter at her side. I would be satisfied with our child's children though. If I had it to do over again I would have just tried to relocate our Third Place back toward the west. When I mistakenly dosed the wounded hunter with the fungus instead of what I thought was the mixture, he almost immediately responded to the draught. All the while she was complying with his demand she was trying to think what Brukeval might do next and what her response should be. Zolana, you remember the Zelandoni's daughter? It is a gift from The Great Earth Mother who you know as Ursus. ", "Yes, he is with the men. Food to eat and more to trade be described as filled with hatred for them this to woman.
