Their father worked in a faraway city, and was rarely at home. Nier knew that it'd be hard to get more money in this village. His voice and breath flowed into Nier's ears like poison. If this keeps up, he might not even have enough for tomorrow's food... much less for Yonah's medicine. If they were not... then it wouldn't be surprising for a pair of orphaned siblings like them to die out in the wild, even if they had the house left behind by their parents. That's why he wasn't alert when the man opened the door and came out. He offers Julien a job that promises wealth but little glory. She took great care in handling it, as if dealing with a broken object. The wet wind seemed to be the harbinger of fog. He wasn't asked to do anything else. When he thought of what food to make her for tomorrow, he could avert his eyes from the anxiety for the future. Now he just laughed at the absurdity of it all. Although she let Nier take care of the chickens, she forbade him to touch the fields. When he spoke these words out loud, his heart was set. A few black shadows appeared on the other side of the mist. He'd get payment for herb-picking today, so he could afford to spare a bronze coin. The man was probably wealthy. Yonah likes them, doesn't she?". It's not because of you nor the food. It came without any warning. Thanking a happily smiling Devola, Nier took off for the eastern door. Nier swung down the sword he held. He's strong enough to fling away a grown man, and not that shabby in speed either.". ", "I'll be sure to pick up some if I go there, but not now. Nier pushed open the door silently. Found in Grimoire NierTranslation by Defade. He was right in thinking that the hen-keeper's wife was gathering the eggs. The benefactor of M. Pirard and Julien's employer in Paris. ", "The fish in the waterway don't jump out.". And you're much older than you were then.". "She's still so young. Before Nier even opened the door, Yonah jumped out. In the first place, the couple only kept a number of chickens that they could deal with. Seafront is far away. After all, she told Yonah to go to Popola after hearing her coughs. How could he convince them to let him go with them? However, they don't leave a corpse when defeated. That's why, when he heard the expensive price for the medicine, he thought he could do something about it. ", "True. Ever since he frequented Seafront, he hated people touching his hair. So my fears were valid... but if Popola noticed it, then it'd be alright. Now's not the time for that. Apparently someone spotted some Shades near the village.". Maybe he'll point me in the right way, Nier was relieved. Nier, I heard that Popola asked you to pick up some herbs today, so can you please get me some mushrooms on the way as well?". The two men seemed to know the man from Seafront. In the end, it was impossible for two children to live in this poor village alone. "I never thought that humans and Shades were so alike...". He saw familiar clothing in front of him. While he walked around, both his hair and skin became disgustingly sticky. Popola smiled calmly while accepting the bag of herbs. Maybe even Devola knew. He saw the man's thin smile. Nier couldn't really tell apart the chicks, but he chose the one that looked the healthiest. Moreover, he has to pass through the Shade infested southern plains, so he has to move while the sun is bright. By Stendhal (Marie-Henri Beyle) Julien Sorel. She was bound to get sick with the flu whenever the seasons changed, and she would get a fever if she just slept a little later than usual. Now that he mentioned it, the air's coldness and heaviness seem to foreshadow rain. Yonah silently gripped Nier's sleeve. She was already smiling when Nier wiped her tear-streaked face. Yes, one last thing. The reason for that is unknown. Popola's work includes many things. Just like how people went to Popola for her knowledge, they went to Devola for someone to listen to their complaints and troubles. Nier could tell from their conversation that they often met each other on jobs like these. He was talking about their first meeting. Are they living beings? Should I even give this job to you...?". A voice called to him out of the blue, and Nier hurried away from the door. He doesn't mind the danger. A bird chirped at a distance. What little money he had went into Yonah's medicine. Nier tried to run but couldn't move - the man was strong. Gathering the eggs in the mornings used to be her job. Nier's hands and feet froze out of their own accord. Yes, he would do anything for Yonah. It's not the kind of cough accompanied by phlegm, nor the kind that makes a whooshing sound whenever you breathe. However, during cloudy days or evenings with weak sunlight, shadows or dark places within the bushes became dangerous. When his father died, he still had his mother. As far as he knew, his mother never stopped her hands. 1. His photographic memory gives him the opportunity to become a successful priest, but Julien wants only to be a soldier. Before he headed into the plains, he went to the south gate. He immediately tried to rush to her side, but was frozen in place. However, the darkness in Popola's eyes did not disappear. The medicine worked very well. "I'm back, Yonah. The paths were complicated, and the poor vision caused by the buildings only made it worse. You're hurting somewhere?". Julien Sorel's worldly ambitions are motivated by the emotional tensions between his idealistic Republicanism and his nostalgic allegiance to Napoleon, and the realistic politics of counter-revolutionary conspiracy by Jesuit-supported legitimists, notably the Marquis de la Mole, whom Julien serves for personal gain. The oppressive stench was distinctly different from that of vomit. His feelings as a brother were completely truthful, but reality simply wasn't that nice. The first time he saw the Shade's blood, Nier hesitated. Keep her bed warm, let her stay in bed for tomorrow... while Nier worked out plans in his head, Popola laughed lightly. It's impossible to make it back within the day no matter how much he rushed. He recalled Yonah saying that her back hurts, himself carrying her outside and meeting Devola, who told them to go back. Wasn't he with you? How the man roughly grabbed his hair, and what he was forced into after that. As long as the job doesn't require him to go to Seafront. The hen owner called out to him just as Nier finished counting the eggs in the basket. But Devola understood. He felt something being lifted from his shoulders, and looked up at the sky. They're about as short-tempered as the sheep in the plains and just as dangerous. Kind-hearted and benevolent, he chooses to be Julien's mentor and teach him Latin anyway. He tried to forget, but those experiences seem to have been deeply engraved within his five senses, and would revive at the most inopportune times to torment Nier. Maybe they knew that the usual medicine won't take effect. A week ago, she had a fever and slept in. I guess we could take him along.". There's still something he could sell. Us siblings were indebted to these sisters more than anyone else in this village, he thought. Don't push yourself too hard, stay quiet for a bit.". Even if most people don't get infected, maybe some people do get infected. The man from Seafront was dead. Popola's voice faded out to a whisper, and she cast her eyes downwards. Now that both his father and mother were dead, he was the only one who could protect little Yonah. He feared that if he stopped here, he wouldn't be able to proceed. He can't quite remember what happened after that. Picking up an egg from the grassfields wet with dew, Nier ( Replicant ) looked at the sky. In another city, the wheat and fish in this village may be treated as chicken feed and lures, but to this village they're precious sources of food. A "daily life" gained by sacrificing everything. After a meager breakfast of the leftovers from the day before yesterday, Nier prepared to go out. Yonah wasn't on the second floor because she was looking after the chick. I don't care if it's dangerous or not.". She is one of the few characters in all of French literature to die of love. Black puddles of blood slipped between her fingertips and splashed onto the floor. It's a dangerous job, but the pay is good.". When she died, he had Yonah. "Not yet. She fell while keeping her posture. "I'll leave it to you then. The central character of the novel, Julien is the nineteen-year-old son of a provincial carpenter. His savings quickly saw their bottom. Or themselves? He wanted to earn enough money. That's why it's so easily confused with normal flu.". You were a great help.". There's no way he could let go of that. A color ambiguous about its nature, human blood or Shade blood. That's how he got into the habit of asking villagers for a job. He lied just now. "It's still small, so you can keep it inside the house. de Rênal's maid. They're the two who tried to chase Nier back in the northern gate. He felt like a heavy weight was placed on him. And I have to pay for Yonah's medicine anyways.". His palms dried in a dark crimson color. He later realized that it was the stench of blood. Nier clenched his mouth tightly. It was Nier's job to feed the chickens they kept in their frontyard. He reached the fountain without realizing it. The trees with Yonah's favorite red fruit were just a bit ahead. The fact that he, as a child, was able to make it thus far is a testament to Yonah's importance. No, he really didn't do anything. He was glad that he talked to the hen-keeper's wife yesterday. It's not like he didn't have savings. Their mother was busy with keeping the family up and running by herself, and didn't have time to spare for that. There were usually two guards at the northern gate, but only one was present. de Rênal that she tells M. Valenod about it. Just like a library without Popola, Nier found a village without Devola's voice hard to imagine. ", "You still have an errand to run before that, right?". So no matter how bright, a torchlight won't have any effect on them. ", "You'll be fine if you eat a good breakfast. What became worse wasn't the weather, but their vision. She was probably just worried at his tired state. Following Nier around after he came home, she'd talk about what she did during the day at great lengths, trying to make up for the time they spent apart. No jobs for today, and he still had no idea what to do for tomorrow. There's also a severe shortage of workforce. True to his word, the guard called out to people who passed by the northern gate, but no one needed Nier's help. Somehow, that's what he thought. She didn't see through anything, she was just lonely. Of course, everyone in the village knew that the Black Scrawl wasn't contagious. That's why he thought this was good enough. The mayor of Verrières. They probably thought that the Shades had killed him. Dragging his feet over the pavement, Nier suddenly realized something. He put the chick on top of Yonah's hands. He was too focused on testing out his favorite sword, and took no heed of Nier's presence. Julien's only friend. "Hey, Nier. Still, Yonah didn't let go of his sleeve yet. His hatred of that man could not be put into words. I'm not gonna sleep well if a random kid dies in front of me.". Mathilde de La Mole isn't the kindest, sweetest person in the world.
