Book Chapter Verse Story Question Answer
1 1 1 Old Nestor lived in a little shack high on the tallest and oldest mountain
1 1 2 On the mountain he grew grapes from the most ancient vines
1 1 3 From the grapes he made wine
1 1 4 The wine flowed endlessly from a large and hollowed horn
1 1 5 The hollowed horn once belonged to the first sacred ram
1 1 6 He always wore the horn around his neck or it was by his side when he slept
1 1 7 This wine was his only nourishment and he ate no food
1 1 8 He was always drunk
1 1 9 He was always happy
1 1 10 He was very wise
1 1 11 He was the oldest man
1 1 12 He had a long and grey beard
1 1 13 He was very tall and as thick and strong as two oxen tied to a plow
1 2 1 Once every hundred moons or more during darkest night Sava visited Nestor in his bed
1 2 2 She was the mountain's oldest and tallest tree
1 2 3 Once every hundred moons or more during darkest night she became a woman and was not a tree
1 2 4 She came to him naked and beautiful as if she were a dream
1 2 5 Her thighs parted and he entered her
1 2 6 Her arms and thighs encircled his body
1 2 7 Her wrists and ankles grew together and trapped him by his sweating back and pumping buttocks
1 2 8 Their nipples grew together
1 2 9 He filled her womb with seed more than a hundred times
1 2 10 Not a drop of his seed was lost from her
1 2 11 As the morning came she was sprouting acorns in her hair
1 2 12 He slept on her breasts until she began growing leaves
1 2 13 Without waking him she snuck back to her place in the mountain forest
1 2 14 She put her roots back into the soil
1 2 15 She stretched her arms for the rising sun
1 3 1 Nestor slept for days in a dream that was nearly death
1 3 2 Out of kindness and love she had left him with a single drop of life
1 3 3 During his slumber her acorns fell from her tresses
1 3 4 The acorns took root and gave birth to birds and rams and snakes and every kind of animal and insect of the mountain
1 3 5 The ram lambs ewed father
1 3 6 The hawk eyas tweeted father
1 3 7 The wolf pups yapped father as even the nymph crickets chirped father father as their first sounds
1 3 8 Each and every mountain newborn said father in its own language
1 3 9 Father was the first sound each made
1 3 10 Nestor heard each of them in his heart
1 3 11 He smiled in his sleep to the sounds of the mountain that were within him
1 4 1 Nestor woke after many days
1 4 2 He rubbed the top of his head where it hurt
1 4 3 The single drop of life she left him had been touched by her
1 4 4 It had given him new vigor in his slumber
1 4 5 It had taken the lines of age from his face but did not touch his white beard
1 4 6 The creaks and pops in his knees were gone
1 4 7 The blur in his eyes and the muffle in his ears were missing
1 4 8 Only his head still hurt where he rubbed it on top
1 4 9 The single drop had transformed into a seed and it had rooted in his skull
1 5 1 Caysus always awoke once every hundred moons or more
1 5 2 As desire for motherhood awoke Sava hunger awoke Caysus
1 5 3 As the newborn plead father father
1 5 4 Their stammerings jolted his ears openned his eyes
1 5 5 So Caysus found himself with nothing but the crust of sleep in his one eye and one nostril, but he had two mouths
1 5 6 Jealousy for his younger brother was in his frozen heart
1 5 7 Ravenous hunger was in his empty stomach
1 5 8 He slowly clambered to his feet
1 5 9 He deeply inhaled the chilled and damp air in his cave until his lungs were full
1 5 10 He roared so loudly his stone prison cracked apart and openned up his escape
1 5 11 An earthquake shook the mountain
1 6 1 It shook Nestor off his bed and to the ground
1 6 2 Wine splashed into his face and beard with little going into his mouth
1 6 3 The ram horn flew from his hands and rolled across the dirt floor
1 6 4 The wine splashed freely as from a spinning wheel
1 6 5 The quake and tremors ended
1 6 6 Nestor crawled for his horn through puddles of wine and it stained his hands and knees
1 6 7 The wine made mud as it seeped into the ground slowly and thickly like blood
1 7 1 The ram lambs still ewed father
1 7 2 The hawk eyas still tweeted father
1 7 3 The wolf pups still yapped father as even the nymph crickets still chirped father father
1 7 4 Each and every mountain newborn still said father in its own language
1 7 5 Caysus heard their calls
1 7 6 Nestor only guzzled from his horn until his ears were deaf and his eyes were blind
1 7 7 Caysus stained his two mouths and his hairy chest and four hands with newborn blood
1 7 8 Nestor stained his mouth and beard with wine
1 7 9 Each brother wore a large red grin on his face
1 8 1 There were three brothers
1 8 2 One was always drunk
1 8 3 One had a thirst for blood
1 8 4 One was a wise and giant bear and the eldest brother
1 8 5 He was a bear who understood all the words of men of beasts and of the earth
1 8 6 The eldest brother heard every whisper even those far away and even while he slept
1 8 7 Only he knew he was the eldest brother but was from another mother
1 8 8 She was the mountain's oldest and tallest tree
1 8 9 The eldest brother and uncle heard them all shouting father father
1 8 10 He could hear Nestor laughing with drunkeness
1 8 11 He could hear the crunching and smacking of soft newborn bone and flesh in two hungry mouths
