summary - missing Lukas

Lukas family was worried because Lukas is missing.
Anna must go and fetch the men. She knows the footpaths and what to do if encountered by the bigfeet. Malie, Sofie and Elias searched and called out for Lukas until dark. The fog was clearing, so Martiens directed everyone into different areas to search for him. and some of the women to make a big fire in the middle of the Island, so the glow can lead him back home. The next day, they got help from the nearest forester with the constable. The constable came by some problems during the search which made him lose hope and addressed them all saying he doesn't think the child is still alive. They still hoped for days, but by the end of the eighth day it was Martiens who took it upon himself to say what had to be said: That the child can no longer be alive.
