"And why does he wish to make me Mother in thy place, Nya?" "Because my tree fell at thy feet, and all the people demand it. Because he thinks that once the bond of the priesthood is tied between you, and his blood runs in thee, thy pure spirit will protect his spirit from its sins, and that thy wisdom, which he sees in thee, will make him greater than any of the Ghost-people that ever lived.
Then Noie combed out Rachel's golden hair, and clothed her again in her robe of silken fur that she had cleansed, throwing over it a mantle of snowy white fibre, such as the dwarfs wove into cloth, which she and Nya had made ready while Rachel slept.
And we accept the Inference as valid, and as sublating or refuting the immediate perception, because the perceived oneness of the flame admits of being accounted for 'otherwise, viz. on the ground of the many distinct flames originating in such rapid succession that the eye mistakes them for one. The reference is to the point discussed Pu. Mi. Su. Nya.
But ask not what it was, for we may not tell thee, nor would it help thee if we did. Only be of a good courage, for this I say, there is hope for thee." So Rachel went to sleep, pondering on these words, of which neither she nor Noie could guess the meaning. The next night when she prayed Nya to lay the spell upon her, the old Mother would not. "Not so," she said.
"Then, Eddo," whispered Nya, leaning forward and looking into his eyes, "she shall be the last Mother of this people. Fool, there are those who fight for her against whom thou canst not prevail. Thou knowest them not, but I know them, and I tell thee that they make ready thy doom.
As Noie put it about her mistress and stepped back to see how it became her beauty, two of the dwarf-mutes appeared creeping up the cave, and squatting down before Nya began to make signs to her. "What is it?" asked Rachel nervously. "Eddo is without," answered the Mother, "and would speak with us." "I fear Eddo and will not go," exclaimed Rachel.
"Ah!" exclaimed Nya starting a little, "they said that to thee, did they? Well, worlds are many, and such a search would be long." Then as though to turn the subject, she added, "And what sawest thou, Noie?" "I, Mother? I went not beyond the stars, I climbed down endless ladders into the centre of the earth, my feet are still sore with them.
You will find me relegated to my original obscurity by that time, with a duly appointed Brigadier a nya jawan riding roughshod over my tenderest feelings, but you can still swagger as the officer accompanying the forces of a friendly state." Gerrard had not been listening. "Bob," he whispered, "I I can't go to Ranjitgarh." "Why not, old boy'?" "She may be there.
"Another life gone," said the old woman, Nya, flitting before them like a little grey ghost, every time that this weird sound struck upon their ears; "whose was it, I wonder? I will look in my bowl, I will look in my bowl."
Outside of the cave by the faint starlight they saw the little shape of Nya creeping down the mound, and thence across the open space towards the wall, and went after her, thinking that she intended to pass the wall.
