Love was not coming easy for the remaining Lindt boys. The lack of females on Tesime was finally becoming a big problem as Jeremy aged to adulthood with no mate on the horizon. Rebecca wanted nothing more than to see her sons settled but life was not being easy on her either. If it wasn't the cooking fire raging out of control, it was lightning strikes setting blaze to the trees close to their hut. Then a terrible coughing illness settled into her chest and she spent many weeks spitting up a foul phlegm. Once she could eat solid foods again she was plagued with food poisoning that lasted for days. Alas it was not her time and she finally recovered to see her baby Abner mature to an adult. Life does like to sneak up and yell SURPRISE at us and poor Rebecca was no exception. As she lay on the soft grass gazing up at the clouds, the gods sent a huge ball of fire from the sky that squished the life out of her. Samuel came running when he heard the noise and could not believe his eyes. His beautiful wife was no more. Heartbroken he hardly heard the words that Grimmy spoke. He certainly did not have the mind to plead for her life and so the call was made. Jeremy was beside himself with grief and the thought of continuing to live seemed like such an effort.
