14868 - Evening route

Ν. Λυγερός
Translated from the Greek by Vicky Baklessi

The people had come from all the regions. They were all gathered and were waiting for the same train. As if it were the last on their mind. They hadn’t left. They had been driven out. And that crime against human rights was named exchange of population exchange. The disciple thought at that moment within all that noise the strategic analysis of the Treaty of Lausanne and wondered which of these passengers had read its articles so that they understand how these would affect their lives for decades. Maybe that query was no longer of any importance, because he was not in the Library with the Master, but at the train Station with the people that he so loved and things were different. He now saw the consequences onto the people of the mental schemes which the Master had portrayed through the structure of the Treaty. How humane would the consequences be he could not have imagined at the time of the teaching and at this stage he understood why the Master had brought him at this point in time which seemed like a knot.
