Young, I was so very young the night the Ixtabay called to me. The years have passed, my eyes have dimmed, my once-smooth face now bears a white and bristly beard, and the laughter of my grandchildren echoes faintly in the hollow well of my ears. But once I was young and heard her call.
The rains have come and gone many, many times since that mad moment I entered the night of the Ixtabay, but when the village is silent in sleep, when the hungry growl of the jungle cools to a soft murmur of satiation, when my heart is open to the spirit voices that rule the night--then do I hear her again, calling to me across the void of the tens of thousands of nights that I have endured without her.
