About the book: year / Alks saw the enemy when he was returning from a not very successful hunt and, carrying only one gray wedge-tail in a canvas bag, hoped to make up for the lack of prey with massive mushrooms, sometimes growing on rotten tree trunks. The path to the lilac grove was not close - first through a ravine overgrown with thick needles, and then through a swamp, and he did not want to go there at all, but the expectation of G'Li's reproaches and punishment from the leader forced him to turn away from his usual path.
