An old farmer works his land like he always has, though his powers are waning. He loves his flock and his farm, even though the work is gruelling, and the seasons are getting harder to weather. He’s tied to the land that his forefathers farmed before him. But who will he leave it to in turn, when the time finally does come, for him to let go? His son and his daughter are both unfit, in their own ways, to take over. His daughter knows farming, but she doesn’t know sacrifice. His son’s only interest in the farm is as a property to sell, not as a repository of a family’s history, a lineage of their connection to the land. His children bicker over this inheritance, while he quietly, stoically, phlegmatically, with what is left of his powers, continues his long indentureship to the land.
