Wanda Revisits The Tulat

13,211 B. C., III.

Steel-gray sunless sky and sea;

crashing surf;

skirling wind;

dead grass;

dark moss;

bare shrubs and trees;

strewn boulders;

dark horizon;

encroaching cold;

approaching blizzard;

roaring, foaming river.

Aryuk looks haggard. Nature agrees. Life has become bad for the Tulat. But an Andersonian heroine can act.
