Not far away a man lolled
on the slope Of the dixie. L
pretended not to see him. He
was the watcher from In
spector Kraus' office.
Late at night. after the boy
had fallen asleep l told Firelei
the details of the campaign
which had brought about her
release. and mine. She lis
tened. her face tense, her lips
set in a hardness / had not
encountered in her before.
In her the soldier spirit of
the fighting years had sur
Vived, despite all hardship and
folly, despite all suffering and
degradation. Nights of ques-
tioning, months of solitary
confinement. and many more
of hard labor in sunless halls
had stifled her enthusiasm,
but they had not strangled
her will to live.

said. I'VE can never give
up. We would be people
with empty hands and empty
hearts. You can rely on me,
and 1 will rely on you. j have
learned that IL IL fruitiess to
dream of peace as long as one
Is alive"
The week passed swiftly.
We made resolute efforts 10
play. and TO laugh, but they
dwindled out like artificial
streams in desert. We went
on long walks along the bikes
and over the meadows and
the dunes. We talked of the
past, of the prison years; we
tried TO untangle the present
and 10 penetrate the uncertain
and complicated roads Of the
future.
