What Happens When Rack And Pinion Breaks?

- 18c Legends of the Dolomites - the children of the sun: Cian Bolpin

 Bolpìn Cian, driven from the castle, wandered to Canazei. The city needed a pastor and gave him the job, as was his father before him. The Regolani (head of the town) said -Quest 'year, the sheep will go under the Sass de halls and Lasties Valley. Take a ride up there to know the places he went -and, between the steep cliffs, he saw a meadow that seemed inaccessible. There appeared a girl dressed in blue, with the laundry in her arms. He stretched out his laundry in the grass, then disappeared into an invisible transition. Cian Bolpìn was so surprised that he wanted to look around. For seven hours we climbed up the rocks until you find yourself in a great and beautiful lawn. Some doors, cut into the rock, were open on corridors leading inside the mountain. The girl came back and was surprised to see more of him in there, telling him it was almost impossible to get there, he wished to see the hand and showed his amazement at seeing signs -your hand is full of contradictions. There is a line of fox and a dog, but this is a principle and a line of e. .. Sun! very lucky! I'm going to call Donna Chenina! is the owner of this building and the whole mountain is not to see anyone, but told me to call if you are a man with the line of the Sun, because destined to be her husband! you will be surprised when you see Donna Chenina, as it is the most beautiful woman that you can see! - In the palace there were many strange things, including the silver vases, filled with earth, where flowers grew large and beautiful colors, the building was also full of holes large and round, yet the wind was blowing. The two married really. Lived happily, until when Cian Bolpìn did not begin to make strange dreams: he was overwhelmed by an avalanche that, suddenly, it broke. Chenina woman came out and gave him her hand portadolo out of the snow, which was full of beautiful flowers of silver vessels.
told the dream to his wife, but she said that he had only been cold. One night in a dream like that, was so cold that woke up. She found herself sleeping in a bed of freshly fallen snow that seemed. He tried to jump out when Chenina woman put her hand over her eyes and said -sleeper, husband my sleep- and he fell into a deep sleep. When he woke up his wife mocked him, wanting him to believe that he had dreamed. There were strange mysteries that he understood and promised not to say anything, but watch carefully. Again he awoke at night and saw that instead of flowers there was only snow and ice. Suddenly he raised a great noise of furious wind, which shook the whole building ... but his wife woke up and said the words that made him fall asleep again. From that day Cian Bolpìn lived in the building uncomfortable and was so homesick that he expressed a desire to get off at Moritz and Canazei to review acquaintances. Chenina woman tried to make him desist, but he realized that he was now an obsession, so first let go of him had to speak -I know you're in a bad mood because you do not explain the secrets of the house, but are so simple to be disappointed and I wanted to save you this disappointment. Go on to the valley, but you will regret, because those who knew have died long ago. You were with me more than you think- Bolpìn Cian was amazed -son rose in early summer and it's not over yet, not saran over the past 2 months! - But woman smiled Chenina -every night there is 9 months. We sleep for 3 seasons and we wake up in the summer. That's why you think it's always the same summer. If you still want to go, take this ring: if you can not find the way and throw it in the air will be with you- Cian Bolpìn left the same. New houses, new people .. just a little old lady remembered the story of a shepherd with his name that he had lost on the mountain and never found. Moritz passed where it was a holiday and young people convinced him to join them. The boys began to talk about young women and every boyfriend or husband claimed that his was the most beautiful valley. The discussion was made on. They insisted with him that began with a sentence- unhappy thankful if my wife does not go down by the stone of salt, because you lose all your bets! - said vilipesero and teases him until he exhausted launched into the air ring. Now forget all the bets and remained ecstatic before the appearance of more than human beauty, but she was furious because -call me for showing off, I take the ring! - took him and walked away. Cian Bolpìn tried and tried to return to the way the first time, but he could not climb. Then he went through meadows and woods, looking for someone to show him the way he could. One evening he was seized by a storm on the ridge of Santarosa and took refuge in a grove of Barance (pine mountain), he heard voices and saw three wild and crazy shapes, surrounded by flames verd'azzurro cavorting around them. I thought they were Numes (sorcerers) withdrew shelter elsewhere. Yet heard. Had taken refuge there in just a hunter with two dogs and Cian Bolpìn having lived with the dogs, he understood what they were saying. -Tarluières are around the course at this time, you'll see that soon something will burn! They are lucky, they have no need of frolicking among the rocks: take the snigolà and fly- said the older dog, and the youngest was called for the snigolà. -you do not know? is a cloak used to fly. Wear it when they want to set fire somewhere. If our master had, in a moment we'd all be home. When a Tarluièr back from his trips are snigolà away and tells him to his companions his might. Then it would be easy to take his coat and fly away, but people do not know what a good time! - Cian Bolpìn now decided to seize it. Just when he reached the place came a Tarluièr who laid his cloak on a bush and said he had hurled a thunderbolt at Pian de Ciampedel. He took advantage of it. wrapped himself in the mantle and fast I want to be thought -Canazei- and be supported through the air, quick as lightning, in the country. He tried several places, but when she asked the building Donna Chenina nothing happened. They spent 9 months. In a summer's day began to speak with a family of foxes and told of the coat. The mother said then that the door snigolà only in places where it clearly says the name, but he did not know in what place was the palace of a woman Chenina! Even the young wandered through fields and woods, wondering if someone knew that place. One day, crossing the Ru de Jetries, recognized a foots (a dwarf). Knowing the wisdom of Morchies joined him and the local churches. He did not know, but gave him a tip- Wait a large temporal and salts on the resolute'll probably get the Mòrtoj (a ghost): As you see corrigli behind while climbing on the rocks until it disappears. Maybe you'll find something-
Cian Bolpìn followed this advice. In time he saw a confused form, reddish rise above the treetops. He had a form of Bena, a carriage basket, which opened many eyes of fire. At dawn, the storm subsided and the boy could be seen to be on the coast by the wind, in front of Sass de Pordoi. He climbed up again, being in a Geba, a mass of dense clouds and there, among the rocks, discovered a rough wooden door of tree trunks. She opened with an effort and went into a cave where there was a giant-woman you do, little man!? My husband is the giant of the storm and is coming back - in fact they heard a roaring hurricane, and he arrived. Before he could speak ill, the boy told him he could fly and wanted to enter his service, so it was put to the test: -Moritz men are in dispute for a small strip of forest, killing us! go ahead and start- the boy flew them, grabbed the trees to the tops and pulled them one by one, so much so that the place is still called Pian de Frataces , Field of broken trees.
-next time I'll go Chenina woman, but I can not take you with me, he will not see anyone. There is much to be done because the building is full of snow and ice. I have to defrost everything and make sure the house was dry and clean- went to sleep, but soon the Giant's wife, jealous, the boy woke -my husband is about to leave. attached to the heel, you will bring with him without realizing it. Tell me what you see and return to tell me everything! - Bolpìn So Cian managed to reach the palace and hid in a room with Donna Chenina. He got a warm wind blowing turbine was lifting a powder snow melting, the waters scorrevan away from the holes of the floor and everything was dry, while the flowers in silver vases began to open. Everything went as tepid and quiet days when you wake up next to his wife and happy at the thought, took a vessel and placed it beside the bed her, then back into hiding. She awoke and, seeing the flowers, began talking to himself at midnight voice -ah, I'm just the flowers that most of all liked Bolpìn Cian, who will become of him? actually sent me into a rage and only time men can not be perfect ... alone will never find the way, I find it ...- then he jumped out, exclaiming- are here! I found the only way to get back to you! - she received him with great joy and, since then, they lived together happily, far from the rest of the world.
