There was a distant roar from the deep, deep place of the earth, and the girl pressed her ear to the icy ground, holding her breath as she listened. For some reason, she felt that the roar had something to do with her own destiny, perhaps in the past, perhaps in the near future.
Getting up, she walked into the deep forest, the boy's soul was trapped in the iron, unable to speak a word. She didn't answer his gaze: the unfortunate creature who spied on her from behind the tree. She just kept walking, walking into the loop of her destiny, circle after circle, and no end.
The black pumice rock broke into her life and took everything. Years later, she will see the lost self again, her two children, one of whom once held the hand of her lost, and the other who will always spy on his dead home in the dark.
In this lonely land, even the air is blue, no one can escape the loop of fate, no one can.
