Of
course
you
knew
that
,
his
mind
whispered
as
he
surveyed
the
piles
of
rocks
that
had
once
been
cairns
.
You
knew
that
,
or
should
have
known
it
--
not
concentric
circles
but
the
spiral
...
Yes
.
Here
on
top
of
this
rock
table
,
its
face
turned
up
to
cold
starlight
and
to
the
black
distances
between
the
stars
,
was
a
gigantic
spiral
,
made
by
what
the
oldtimers
would
have
called
Various
Hands
.
But
there
were
no
real
cairns
,
Louis
saw
;
every
one
of
them
had
been
burst
apart
as
something
buried
beneath
returned
to
life
...
and
clawed
its
way
out
.
Yet
the
rocks
themselves
had
fallen
in
such
a
way
that
the
shape
of
the
spiral
was
apparent
.

Has
anyone
ever
seen
this
from
the
air
?
Louis
wondered
randomly
and
thought
of
those
desert
drawings
that
one
tribe
of
Indians
or
another
had
made
in
South
America
.
Has
anyone
ever
seen
it
from
the
air
,
and
if
they
did
,
what
did
they
think
,
I
wonder
?
He
kneeled
and
set
Gage
's
body
on
the
ground
with
a
groan
of
relief
.
At
last
his
consciousness
began
to
come
back
.
He
used
his
pocketknife
to
cut
the
tape
holding
the
pick
and
shovel
slung
over
his
back
.
They
fell
to
the
ground
with
a
clink
.
Louis
rolled
over
and
lay
down
for
a
moment
,
spread-eagled
,
staring
blankly
at
the
stars
.
What
was
that
thing
in
the
wood
?
Louis
,
Louis
,
do
you
really
think
anything
good
can
come
at
the
climax
of
a
play
where
something
like
that
is
among
the
cast
of
characters
?

But
now
it
was
too
late
to
back
out
,
and
he
knew
it
.
Besides
,
he
gibbered
to
himself
,
it
may
still
come
out
all
right
;
there
is
no
gain
without
risk
,
perhaps
no
risk
without
love
There
's
still
my
bag
,
not
the
one
downstairs
but
the
one
in
our
bathroom
on
the
high
shelf
,
the
one
I
sent
Jud
for
the
night
Norma
had
her
heart
attack
.
There
are
syringes
,
and
if
something
happens
...
something
bad
...
no
one
has
to
know
but
me
.
