[pull for catalog]Something white and wide-winged came down out of the dark above her and almost hit her head, making her yelp and duck as it whisked past. It made a papery sound as it cut the air. “Go away!” she shouted, frightened now. But it was not an angel. Intrigued, she watched it glide down into the bushes by the path, then blundered through long grass and nettles to the place where it had come to rest. It was roughly bird-shaped, but no bird made out of paper and glue and slender wooden struts. Smaller than it had seemed, its wingspan no more than the width of her two hands. The thin body weighted at the front with a bronze coin, the tail split like a swift's. A small kite, she thought at first, but it had no string. It was a glider.She turned, scanning the heights of the crater above her. Lights showed in a few buildings way up there, and the moon lit up pale stone revetments at the edges of farming terraces. She could see no sign of anyone who might have launched the glider. Angels blew like blossoms across the darkened slopes. She called out to them as she made her way back to the path. “What is this? Where did this come from?”
