continues the story of our holiday imaginary:
last episode
None of us expected it.
One day, when Monica was now fully restored,
Perranzow out of danger, and Ohn abandoned on the sacred rock of the nuisance, Sanjai
ate a large insect ciccioso armored ring from the back and belly reddish
soft and milky.
It said it was delicious, and that he had never tasted anything so delicious,
then began to contract the legs and occur in a grimace of pain
(you can recognize a grimace of pain on an arachnoid
only when you really know well).
And so it remained, still, the legs attached to the body and the face still, jaws
dilated and his eyes dull.
I went to shake, believing that would make me a joke.
Nothing.
The chieftain wanted stuff because it was a brave Uzrah
and certainly looks more than strange,
and it was right that he saw the next generation features.
I was a little 'taken aback and said I did not know if it was good or not,
not know enough of civilization Sanjai,
and only now I realized how many questions I had not had time
to him about it.
The issue was destined to remain unresolved,
because a few days after Monica was impaled by a spear nemica
in un attacco al villaggio.
Dopo aver respinto la tribù avversa,
mentre ancora lo stregone apportava le ultime, inutili cure alla povera ragazza,
decisi di andarmene.
"Basta - dissi a Perranzow-
bisogna che ci mettiamo a cercare un modo di tornare a comunicare
con lo spazio esterno:
bisogna che torniamo ai pianeti a cui apparteniamo.
Lo so che forse è da pazzi e non ha senso,
lo so che probabilmente non serve a niente,
ma forse ho bisogno d'uno scopo,
di qualcosa da fare...
Monica era l'unica femmina della mia specie
nel raggio di qualche sistema solare,
non che provassimo attrazione l'uno per l'altra,
ma are now condemned to extinction. "
" For me it's different.
- said Perranzow-
I Maunzaw, but we feel the need
get out of this isolation.
We come from a civilization that has the real estate market and the microwave ...
For us to be with these primitives is a pleasant diversion, but
when we can not explain things to us are
elementary
it is pretty frustrating. "
leave immediately, with the boat
I had built to cross the sea.
Not that it made sense,
did not know what we would find the other side,
but perhaps this was just pushing,
the thought of going into the unknown dangers and fears of all new
forced by the need not to immediately think of the comrades left behind.
and reach a large island, exhausted and thirsty.
Great but not as we left the mainland,
which was to be a true continent.
We found fresh water and they drank copiously
not worry its potability
- better to die of dehydration.
We explored the island for days without result.
off once caught a glimpse of another island from the heights.
And there he found nothing but a tribe of Uzrah
different from all others,
probably came there centuries if not millennia before and developed as civilization itself.
was they who speak of the 'man of the sacred word "
but we could not understand,
want to barriers of language,
want to inconsistent historical memory of the tribe, if this man was
a legend thousands of years old,
or a concrete event a week earlier. We find the answer
six islands (six days) later, a small blue bus with
bean-shaped.
"Welcome brothers
- Reverend Schlesinger said in the local language,
surrounded by a tribe dangling from his lips as
children not wait to listen to stories
- you came to hear the sacred word?
But do they see my old eyes ... You are not the Uzrah:
you must be shipwrecked. Wilbur who bless you ... "
We hugged his knees and pretended to wash his feet,
although I do not want at all that a missionary Uhnox
wash any part of my body.
We're back with the his shuttle to the village from where we started
to greet the chieftain, shaman, and all our friends ...
And I found out that Monica had been saved, albeit in very poor condition,
and that if we had just brought in a modern health institution
would throw in the sixth,
even though the scar would remain.
We took away the body of Sanjai,
because they had not touched in our absence. To our surprise
sum, the clinic resumed Unoxiana fine too, only
was left paralyzed by the poison.
And who knew that his
physiology allowed him to stop and restart with a tap, like an old clock automatic
stagnated in a drawer for a while '?
We all re-embraced, with tears
- ours and the Reverend Schlesinger, that it was not clear why,
crying more than we do-
and we promised to stay in touch.
But since we know how these things go, and there are
email that you do not write themselves
and phone calls that are never embarrassed,
we arranged to meet there on the moon Uzrah,
in a year to go a week together.
Meanwhile, the Reverend Schlesinger
I read a few passages of the holy book
not wait to share with you ...
