'The reindeer that they were so intent on protecting from the wolves will enter their dreams as prey. The delicate throats of the calves will become objects of ardent desires until they imagine their own teeth protruding through their lips, sharpened for the moment when they will strike and the warm blood of the calf will fill their mouths and satiate their souls. Wheeled suitcases clatter past her sitting spot as reminders that she, too, will go away soon, clattering a bag behind her, the important baggage of a life lived amongst strangers and strangeness. The mountains provided a soft bed for those who wanted to rest, and within a few generations the people had put down roots in the small villages where they left the old and the young and the infirm behind, throughout migration.'
