Bon hiver. Bon hiver.
Boy and bear are stumbling through the snow, away from the dark man and his strange, disturbing voice.
He's a Dark Eater, Grandma White Feather says suddenly next to Nanuk. But that doesn't mean he eats the dark. He steals the light and feeds from all men's and animals' fear of the dark.
That's scary, Grandma, Nanuk sighs almost out of his breath.
Maybe scary but all so true.
When do Momon and Popon come home?
Bon hiver. Bon hiver. The longest night on earth is here.
And Nanuk runs right into the black man who appeared right in front of him like suddenly grown out of the earth. And his white-teethed grin is shining in the dark.
