Copper Mountain by Koenraad Ecker

One night, as we lit the fire on the Copper Mountain
I see my friend become a little hypnotized. He fell asleep suddenly and
started to complicate his speech.
And then I see these people appear and I say "what did you come here for?" They tell me...
They say ... I wanted to flee at first, it was my first time to work with such spirits.
I wanted to flee but : there is no way, I had become paralyzed. I don't have the strength to…
I don't have the strength to move even one hand but I can still speak.
I said, "What is this?"
They tell me: "You...now you will listen to us. You will learn about the history of our mountain”
