She Who Sees

30000 years ago in the west of Europe. A girl at the threshold between teenage years and adulthood. Her Clan, as it does every end of autumn, has settled in the loop of a river, at the foothills of the Pyrenees. The Clan is to spend winter nearby a decorated cavern in the mountain, that is their sanctuary.
The young woman is a marginal. She lost her father too early, she doesn't know exactly how. She is still living in her mother's hut, at the edge of the camp. Her only friend, an orphan adopted by the Clan, is entirely devoted to her. He is in the process of becoming one of the best among the young hunters, but he doesn't get the recognition he deserves because is an orphan. The young marginal girl doesn't accept this. It leads her to confront He-who-sees, the Clan's leader. This confrontation will put the story in motion. The story will unfold over the four seasons.

So, the story happens during the Superior Paleolithic era. The north of Europe is covered with a thick layer of ice. Homo Sapiens are nomadic, hunter-gatherers, and follow herds of reindeer in their migration. The Neanderthals are still in existence, and carry on with their ancestral ways of life, hunting the large animals. Sapiens or Neanderthals, their are very few humans. Nature is immense. The wide plain and its sub-arctic climat supports many animal species. Humans can survive with this plentiful game, as long as they are prudent and organized, because between the condition of predator, and the condition of prey, the distance is short.

Nowadays, earth is exhausted. Humans are all powerful. With this story, I hope to revive a time when human's vulnerability made them wise, and nature was at the best of its health.
