This night was alarming. The parent slept badly that night, the woman tossed and turned endlessly under the deer cover. It pressed hard on the chest, the unfortunate suffocated, and her legs, even in woolen stockings, were numb and cold. I fell asleep so hard, heard my daughter moving, and a small viper curled up next to her. The unfortunate mother tried to insist that she would throw out a new toy. yes, where it hit such tears that it agreed, and allowed to leave at home. She only ordered that she herself would follow, so that inadvertently the snake would not fall under her feet. The girl smiled, agreeing to everything, understandably nodded her head, with funny clumps of hair. She has only seven curls of very blond hair left on her head, like all the giants that boys have, like girls. In response, she kissed her daughter, she always saw how the girl took care of her.

She was the wife of Res, the brother of their leader Child, and poor Alma only one was able to survive out of five children. Therefore, for a woman, their child was the only joy. And here, inappropriately, the disease fell on the tribe in their village. After a severe fever, Asna could not recover for a long time, and her heart began to hurt. Often heavy behind the sternum, but drinking helped the magician Uday, immediately removed the aches and breathed easier. Skilled herbalist, caring. How many sick people came out. And she almost helped, but so far she could not fully recover.

But now, she fell asleep, as if she had fallen into deep blackness. It seems that I did not see anything, and then, as if the curtain was removed before my eyes. Blackness disappeared, and Asna looked as if in a clean window, and not from a fish bubble, but a hundred times more transparent. I dreamed incomprehensible, as if her daughter, little Alma, had grown up, got into an unknown place, her clothes were incredible, in a variety of colors.

One that no one here has ever seen — as if the flowers had blossomed. Shoes — in three straps, as if there is nothing. Her daughter ate only honey… And others who were nearby ate wonderful food. The food comes out of the box, ready and hot itself… But all the rest is small growth, Alma is only reached to the shoulder. And next to his daughter, a young man, to what he is smart and prigozhy, it is immediately clear that he is a magician. And also tall and slender, like all the giants. But he is cut and dressed — very funny and looks like Alma with his face. And my daughter looks at him, she cannot see enough, and there are six more beauties around. But the young man only welcomes Alma. Asna even heard the name when she turned to Alma’s chosen one:

— Ilya, we have to go.

Here she was completely delighted, and the woman was frightened — but how, Alma got a guy with that name, a name like one of the Twins — Ull or Ill. Here you will be scared… Asna woke up with difficulty, squeezed her chest so that she could not breathe. She could only whisper:

— Alma…

— What is mommy, — the girl whispered quietly in fright, sitting down nearby, — I’ll bring you kvass now… Everything will be fine.

— Don’t, don’t, — the woman whispered, — forgive me, I’m leaving…

— No, don’t die mommy! — and Alma hugged the woman, kissing her cheeks, forehead and lips.

— I’m sorry, I’m sorry, I’m guilty… Try your best to stay if you are destined…

— Good, good… Everything. as you like, don’t just die!

— And I saw your betrothed… Not from our places as if: He is a magician, for sure. And his name is remembered — Ilya.

Then she only whispered something, and could feel her hands and feet getting cold, and heard Alma crying, and this was the last thing she could understand.
