Indian Horse
When Saul has a vision.
Chapter six
Chapter six
In Chapter Six, Saul remembers sitting in his favorite place, the top of a pink gravel cliff where he can look out across the green land. Suddenly, he hears his name and looks down to the lake, where he sees a group of people living joyful lives on the shore. As he watches, the day turns to night, and Saul can smell the land and hear the people, now singing in the Old Talk, the forgotten language from long ago. An old man looks up from the singing and makes eye contact with Saul, and suddenly the morning comes and the people disappear. Saul is heartbroken. Naomi finds him, and he weeps in her arms. Saul’s vision helps him realize that in the past, his family had lived and died on the shore of Gods Lake, which is why it still belongs to them.
