It was a restless night. The clear, mysterious light of the moon floated through the clouds. At three-thirty in the morning, Vava put on his headlamp, got his pack ready, pulled on the sneakers he had no choice but to wear, and continued on to the main summit of Yushan. His headlamp could only illuminate the ground a few steps ahead. He wanted to ask this Matriarch, Did we rely on each other like this in the past, too? As the light in the sky subtly shifted, he pushed through the pain in his feet, and with a churning mind and open eyes, pressed on, step by step, reaching the summit before sunrise.

Does this ever-silent Matriarch know how close I have come to her? “Time to go!” Vava returned to earth, his Matriarch touching him with freezing wind. On the way down, he stroked his aching calves and the icy boulders, and softly chanting an ancient tune to this Matriarch. “Hu! Bunun to mailantagus (Oh! Ancestral spirits) …”
