NÚRIA TAMARIT
Some time ago, I heard about El Dorado.
Crowds of men traveled there. They said that once you got there, you could join a gold panning expedition.
And it would only take a few weeks or months for you…
…to return home, rich beyond imagining.
At that moment, I thought I had nowhere to go, no home.
I sold my few possessions. It was just enough to buy a ticket.
It was worth a shot.
OK, first things first: find some gear and provisions.
Thank you.
Just look how nice this skin is, it’s a good deal !
Fine, I’ll trade you for the snowshoes.
Your blanket for my gun, final offer.
Done !
All ready for adventure…
Your math is wrong, AGAIN ! That ain’t right !
What’re ya tryin’ to pull ?
Pardon me, can I please sign up for…
…the next expedition, if possible.
Where’d SHE come from ?! No women ! What would you do with gold, anyway ?! None of your beeswax. Pff… go on, beat it ! My pleasure ! See ya !
What’s she doing ? She won’t last long like that…
Looking for an expedition ?
C’mon.
If you really want gold, talk to those men over there.
Yeah.
But… Who are you ?
You’re pretty brave to come here alone. Oh, uh… thanks.
Tala.
I’m with Matwei’s expedition.
Matwei’s group is the only one that accepts women.
They’re behind the shack.
I butchered this black fox myself–it’s from the Old Continent.
You won’t see another like it around here.
Let me join your expedition, and it’s yours.
You’re right, black fox fur is a rare sight around here.
So what’ll you do with your share of gold ?
I’ll go home. I see. Not the talkative type, eh ?
Sign here.
We leave tomorrow at dawn. Meet us at the main road.
You won’t regret this !
