Hour of the Wolf: Chapter 24

Summary: Allison finally cracks. Cora puts two and two together and comes up with homicide, and some Hale family secrets are laid bare at four in the morning. Noah has his suspicions. Lydia has questions as she begins to learn more about banshees. And lastly, Anna Vasquez comes to Beacon Hills and wonders why everyone is acting so weird.

Notes: Another 17,000 words? Why not. Cora Hale does a bit of mental math and gets stabby. And really, who can blame her with all the lying? Peter continues to baffle. Derek still doesn't know what to make of Allison, and it's starting to get a little old. More medical adventures, and Allison learns that not even a human alpha is immune to repeated traumatic blood loss.

Then we veer into OC territory as Anna arrives in town on the trail of the killers of her sister and has to deal with a niece who looks 17 and who is in actual fact older than Ana herself and has spent 26 years knowing everything there is to know about LA werewolves. So, you know, cognitive dissonance.

Obligatory gifset:

So yeah Cora’s at the end of her temper, what with all the inter-familial homicide:

After that all gets sorted out sans assassination, Allison has a hell of a day to get through:

And Sheriff Stilinski has some opinions about what’s going on in his town, and has some thoughts that will become relevant later on...

and then, out of nowhere, an aunt appears:

Crystal Reed is 34, not 36 like Anna in this chapter, but eh, close enough. 

See you all next week when Anna finds out how bad things really are for Allison, and Allison runs across an actual Nick Fury in the wilds of Beacon Hills.

“Tanecic!” “Tiotaqui!” “Tayohuah!” At the Episcopal Church of the Messiah in Santa Ana, Davíd Vásquez’s small group of students repeat the Nahuatl words for good morning, good afternoon, and good evening. For more than 20 years, 61-year-old Vásquez has taught the Aztec language. Leading classes across Southern California, this path has led him to touching the lives of thousands. Since 1996, he has taught a monthly class at the church, where he also works as a janitor. During these two-hour sessions, he equips his students with everything they need to know about the language and the culture. “The word elotl is basically the same,” he said, according to OC Weekly. “Corn cobs were the first harvest at that time, and the Mexicans would make an offering from it to Coatlicue, the goddess of mother earth.”

Growing up in the remote town of Tlalmotolo in Puebla, Mexico, Vásquez – who didn’t learn Spanish until he turned 13 – and his neighbors spoke Nahuatl. All the knowledge he now imparts to his students comes from the elders in his hometown. When he moved to Mexico City as a teenager, he tried to find ways to stay connected to his language. And ever since he arrived in the United States in 1989, Vásquez has found a way to use Nahuatl.

He began attending open mic nights and reciting poetry in Nahuatl. One serendipitous day in 1992, college students heard him and asked him to join the Chicano Poet Society. And he did, until the group went its separate ways. A year later, he met Lupe Lopez, a student at Golden West College, during a UCLA hunger strike. The activists – who used Viva La Raza as a rallying cry – wanted a new slogan, perhaps in another language. Vásquez suggested Mexica Tiahui – Mexica Forward. “That became a symbol of the next generation of indigenismo, of Chicanismo,” Lopez told OC Weekly. “Many people don’t know where that came from, but it came from Davíd.”

That same year, he self-published La Voz de Tenochtitlán: La Lengua Azteca, a Spanish-Nahuatl book with hundreds of words. As the Mexican peso crisis of 1994 brought thousands of indigenous Mexicans to the US, his skills became more invaluable to his new country. Courts needed Nahuatl interpreters – a similar phenomenon currently taking root in the US’ immigration courts, except with Quiché and Mam speakers. Lopez introduced Vásquez to court officials, and it led to him becoming an interpreter. “There would be two interpreters: one hired by the court to translate from English to Spanish, and then I would translate from Spanish to Nahuatl for the defendants charged with any criminal offenses,” he said.

During this busy time in his life, he also developed a new Nahuatl alphabet. In the mid-1500s, Nahuatl faced extinction when Hernán Cortés conquered the Aztec Empire. Spaniards intended for their language to supplant Nahuatl, even issuing royal decrees to keep indigenous peoples from speaking in their native tongues. However, missionaries used the language to convert native Mexicans to Catholicism. But Nahuatl did take a hit – the writing system was lost and the language has been passed down orally.

Therefore, Vásquez’s alphabet may not be tied to traditional codices, but it does use Mexica philosophy as a reference point. “Every symbol has its own profound root, sound, and place,” he added. “The ‘zero letter’ is like the mother of the alphabet. The new alphabet is absolutely necessary because the Latin letters do not complement the sounds that we need. I’ve spent more than 40 years of studying the vocabulary to be able to put it in order, for me to put it into writing the way we have it now.” Currently, he’s writing a book about his system.

Vásquez can retire in a few years, but he has much more he wants to accomplish. He takes great pride in the language of his ancestors, and it shows in the way he treats his students. After one of his classes, he presented his students with certificates that read, “For having the courage to learn and rescue our Nahuatl language in Santa Ana.”
