Moko is enjoying spending time in Alarick’s country. The warm weather has returned, the trees have flowered and food is plentiful. Moko thinks that now the cold has passed and that from now on life here will be easy. He had thought about leaving and continuing his quest for the end of the world but decided to stay a while longer. An old man tells him that the cold will return, but Moko doesn’t want to believe him and lets time pass. He sees the beauty of the changing seasons and one morning... winter! Alarick knows Moko will be on his way and gives him his flute so he will never be alone.

Extrait du livre Ever-changing land

Ever-changing land


The warmth of spring had returned and nature was waking, each day more beautiful, flooding the land with colour. Alarick was looking at the horizon, his heart filled with sadness. This good weather urges you to travel, Moko. You must continue your journey. You promised your friend you'd find the edge of the world! Moko was surprised. It had all but skipped his mind entirely. Now that the cold has finally gone, I can stay and enjoy these beautiful days for as long as I like, said Moko. Then suddenly Moko realised that Alarik wasn't there any more. Moko followed the path along the river, hoping to find him.
He came across an old man: if you are looking for your friend, you should know that he is preparing your upcoming journey... No, I want to stay, it's not time yet, said Moko as he continued walking. The old man's voice rang out from behind him: then enjoy the warmth, my boy. Because the cold will return one day!
As he walked, Moko studied the land around him, the sky, the earth, the sun, the moon, and the leaves as they danced in the wind like feathers. The days passed. One morning, the cold returned again, accompanied by snow.
