Summary
The Hargega Valley is terrorized by the Dhegdheer, who eats up everyone that crosses her path. She orders her daughter to build an empty village to lure travelers and soon a grieving widow and her son stop for water. The daughter attempts to hide the travelers, but the Dhegdheer can smell them, and starts to search, hut by hut
