Saul loves God's lake. He finds identity and purpose there. The lake is surrounded by trees, and, on one side, tall cliffs which stretch high above the shoreline. The land is rich and fertile, and the family has more to eat than they ever had before. One day, Saul is sitting in his favorite place, the top of a pink gravel cliff where he can look out across the green land. Suddenly, he hears his name and looks down to the lake, where he sees a group of people living joyful lives on the shore. As he watches, the day turns to night, and Saul can smell the land and hear the people, now singing in the Old Talk, the forgotten language from long ago. An old man looks up from the singing and makes eye contact with Saul, and suddenly the morning comes and the people disappear. Saul is heartbroken. Naomi finds him, and he weeps in her arms.
