These things they had been told by the Ancients, but they remembered it now anew as they followed each other in silence to the hills, and to the white walls of Pu-yé--and to the tomb there newly built that the Woman of the Twilight might rest where her people had lived in the lost centuries.
The portal of it was closed, and the sign of her order was cut in the rock at the portal.
