As she passed nearby the motionless body of her beloved husband lying in the snow, now almost entirely covered by the drifts, she could not help but wail out a long cry of despair and goodbye. The children screamed and cried out also as they suddenly understood the severity of their situation.She almost succumbed to the temptation to fight to the death here and now. Only the cries of her children checked that temptation.She began to kneel down to gather them in her arms to comfort them when one brute gave Yah Doh Nay a shove, sending him sprawling into the snow."Get going!" He snarled.Deh Neh Totsi straightened up and faced him with such fury that he stepped back.With a ferocity and intensity that dropped her voice almost to a whisper, she said through clenched teeth, "when Chee comes, you will fall."She then threw back her head and screamed into the sky with such force and intensity that it froze every one of them in their tracks."Chee eeee!" She screamed and as her volume faded the echoes came rolling back, she dropped her head, grabbed the children's hands and started down the hill.
