Yani and Etta: A New Beginning

The years have been kind to Yani in her home by the sea. Although she is alone in her house on the cliff she is never lonely. But her solitary life is soon to end. While she is working on her garden in the meadow a pinecone comes whizzing at her. Dorf, the Knapper’s nephew, reenters Yani’s life along with his brother Holt. As the summer ends, houses for Dami, Yani’s sister, and Dorf as well as Honi and Sven are being built in the meadow. By the next summer there are two new baby boys but the weather is not kind to the budding village. The land is crackling dry. The heat has driven the fish way from the shore. The garden must be watered daily to keep it from wilting. An angry dark cloud rises above the trees. Theirs lives are all destined to change.
