The passage

-by Gloria Cuenca Bescós-

Bewildered, I wake up again with that image in my head. My group is looking for a pass in the mountain, I remember it clearly, but why? who are we? why do we need to cross this colossal rocky giant? we are so well off here! I try from the boira of my dream to see details that will allow me to answer so many questions. A sensation breaks through, the cold. The cold that bites and takes some of them to that place where they no longer speak. I also feel the urgency of those around me in the attempt to convince us that we must move now because otherwise we will all be silence. And the only way is to get to the pass in the mountains where we have gone to hunt bucard and lynx. Food and clothing. But now I've guessed it, it's my family group that urges us to go up and over it.
