Gazing at the ceiling with her silver eyes, the white-haired woman spoke, "But the herd is too afraid to even dream of a world beyond their cage, where they would have to survive on their own without the shepherd providing shelter and food, indifferent to the predators in the wild. To the herd, the shepherd is a benevolent god, while the black sheep is seen as the devil."
After a moment of silence, she turned her gaze to Ivan, who was listening intently. Then, Batsheva raised her voice once more, "Nevertheless, the black sheep persistently sneaks out and eventually discovers a land where the king of sheep resides. The king offers him the finest grass in the world, urging him to bring it back to his herd in the hope that they would follow him to the paradise he has found far from their current confines and villages."
