In a quiet village between the foggy hills and the non -forgotten rivers, Jane was known not by her face, but by her voice – a voice seemed so soft, it seemed so soft, it resonated in the hearts of the listeners. She was a guardian of soft echoes, through a character generation of people who understood the silence better than the sound.
Jane spent his days walking in the old houses, greater routes and empty classrooms, recorded the farewell farewells of laughter, lolis and whispers, which once filled the air. With a small, handmade device he wore in his throat, he grabbed the echoes that were rotating in wood, stone and dust. Then, on the twilight, she would sit under a twisted cedar tree and leave them – one by one – in the air.
People came to him when they felt that the memory was sliping from the world, not from the mind. A mother mourning a child long glown, a man searching for the sound of his Father’s old violin, a teacher attempt to recall the voice of her students. Jane listened patiently, and then offered them a small glass – a silver of time, caught and returned.
No one knew how he did it. Some people said that the echoes complied with it because it speaks in the language of memory. Others believed that she was not collecting voices, but returning them – giving everyone a place to echo.
Jane’s smile, soft and beautiful, was the only answer she got.
