BACKGROUND
"No one remembers when they
settled here, even the old
Albert can not remember this, and because he, of course, if
the old man does not confuse, already a hundred!
We did not care about them until
they held each other and not
climbed toward us. I mean, all
we only want a little peace and
peace, and that no one
poking his nose into our affairs. We here in
Skuchinse small, simple people, and
with any of the magic of affairs is not

Do you know much better what
does not relate to.
Of course, we've seen of them: sometimes
they collected toadstools and all
is in the woods, or used to a
one of them might wander into the shop
Tabby Haik for herbs, but in general they were not with us,
ordinary people, no business, and this acceptable to all.
Yes, it happened, they argued and

or not, but only two years
ago, or maybe three (for some reason I remembered it was the
same year, when the donkey was dead Alberts)

have are there any more, and we
they did not bothered.
But two weeks ago, everything changed. First, the forest was
quiet for a couple of days, even swifts were silent. A Then it
began: at first cries, then all sorts of bangs, blasts and
something else, such as better and
not to think. Yesterday Leanorik old retired from his brother
and settled in hut on the other side of the village. Hike (and
he somehow still knows them better than everyone else)
said that they started a mezhduusobitsu, and let the Lord help
the one who comes between them. Maybe so, maybe not, but that
strange things are happening in our village - I'm sure. Not
need to read all sorts of clever books to understand - perhaps
we are destined to see how it would be, so mark my words. "
