<< chapter 2
That human hadn't the typical man's suit, he was a little uncombed and had some leaves
on arms, perhaps caused by the passage in the woods.
In one hand he held a bow of wood and stand still. But the thing that let Zed completely
enchanted was the man's gaze: Zed had never seen such as.
The man in front of him had shining eyes, which seemed to be alive of his life, a proud look,
the lips of a serene smile and his whole body was talking of beauty;
Zed had never seen a man communicate his soul like that, showing himself without misgiving,
without fear, that man him looked like a stone, a tree, a river, spreading harmony
and inner peace that he had never seen before in any human being.
Zed would have stayed there all his life but the man at some point got up one arm
pointing upwards. He indicated that the sun was falling. Zed saw that, it was late!
he had to return before evening inspection, so he made a gesture of greeting
and started running toward the wall, he saw the man leave.. but how did the man know that?
According to educamp teachers he should have been already dead, killed by the blind rage
and the innate violence of male savages and cannibals that lived off the wall.
Zed returned there again a few days later. He discovered that man was able to speak.
Zed wanted to follow him to his village where he was welcomed with warmth and friendliness.
