Bab 224: Ronan's Calling

Arielle, Tania, and Sasha were sitting with the other women around a large bonfire in the middle of the village square. Several other village women were preparing dinner together. Tania got up to help them, leaving Arielle and Sasha curled up in a blanket in front of the bonfire.

"So? Are you satisfied playing in the water?" asked Arielle while nudging Sasha's shoulder.

Sasha nodded with quivering lips. Arielle then wrapped the blanket she was wearing to share with Sasha too. Arielle felt sorry for the child looking at how tired he was after playing all day at the lake.

Sasha didn't want to get out of the water, even until his lips trembled with cold and his skin was wrinkled. He continued to swim around the lake. Tania called him many times, but Sasha didn't listen.
