Greetings my dear reader! Make yourself at home. I really hope that my stories will help you escape from the problems and immerse yourself in the wonderful world of my fantasies.
The bolt tries again and tries to get up, but takes off again and falls, completely exhausted and overwhelmed by a sense of despair, guilt and shame. Then comes a very strong, touching and emotional moment: the White Wolf gently soothes him, gently touching his head with his forehead, and gently fondles his face (as animals pet each other and rub his face against each other), stroking and urging him to stand up. However, Bolto surrenders and loses consciousness. The White Wolf turns around and goes into a blizzard. He looks back at the half-breed and as if waiting for it. Bolto only whispers in time to say, "I'm sorry...". Looking Bolto in the eyes, the wolf disappears in the purge like an illusion, which is another hint that the White Wolf is not a real, not a living animal, but a spirit or a hallucination. The bolto is left alone with itself, in blizzards and in severe frost. Only traces of the Wolf are left, which are gradually wiped out by the gusts of the north wind. Taking the will to the fist ("I can... I will do it."), Bolto steps into the trace of the White Wolf, and the paw perfectly coincides with the wolf's trace. The half-breed finally finds out who he is, accepts himself as a wolf, finds and accepts his wolf half and starts crying. The White Wolf reappears and joins him, they perform a melodic and sensual howl together, and the episode also ends with the epic final chord ending (mentioned above).
I personally like this variant much more, though in some moments it is a little bit longer. The scene is still as silent as the White Wolf is silent, except that psychological moments look more closely at it, and the focus is on both the Wolf and Bolto and his emotional torments and the storm of emotions experienced equally. The same atmosphere of mystery, a lot of touching and dramatic moments, a lot of curious details. Again, I like the way the White Wolf soothes and supports the half-blood, preserving its stature and severity. How he leaves, but looks back, symbolizing a small chance and hope before joining the wind and disappearing. As well as the parallels drawn with the belligerent White Wolf in the mirage among the rare rays and blizzard in the initial scene and the Bolto himself with the wolf's shadow under the sun among the fading blizzard in the final scene - and it is interesting that both versions of the old version of Zipermann are called "Bolto's Resurrection", and "death and resurrection" represent also the rebirth, renewal and purification. After these scenes and details, the masterpiece of the final version seems to be very weak and circumcised in these moments (by the way, yeah). Here the White Wolf looks like a mother of an old loner with a severe formidable temper and appearance, but who is not alien to compassion and nobility. He has eyebrows, a beard, a fried build and a fluffy collar around his neck, he is strong, tall and thin. Here you can see the hypostasis of his father, you can feel his father's figure, both strict and distant, but at the same time ready to help and provide moral support in a difficult moment (by the way, although Wells said that if you want to interpret the White Wolf as Bolto's father, you can, However, the "fatherly figure" is not always equal to the "biological father" - the mighty White Wolf, as a fatherly figure, rather embodies the wolf side inherited from the wolf father, whom Bolto never knew or saw, and perhaps some of the features of this wolf father, as well as the noble qualities of Bolto himself).
