124 the Cöos
сущ.; собст.; SK, DT 41. название холмистой местности недалеко от Хэмбри, которая считалась плохим местомRhea’s hut, its stone walls and the cracked guijarros of its roof slimed with moss, huddled on the last hill of the Cöos. Beyond it was a magnificent view northwest—the Bad Grass, the desert, Hanging Rock, Eyebolt Canyon… — Хижина Риа, с каменными стенами и поросшей мхом крышей, притулилась у вершины последнего холма Кооса. С нее открывался прекрасный вид на северо-западную равнину: Плохую Траву, пустыню, Скалу Висельников, каньон Молнии… (ТБ 4)
They met in the willow grove, in several of the abandoned boathouses which stood crumbling at the northern hook of the bay, in a herder’s hut far out in the desolation of the Cöos, in an abandoned squatter’s shack hidden in the Bad Grass. — Они встречались в ивовой роще, в пустующих сараях на северной оконечности бухты, в хижине овцевода на отдальнных окраинах запустелого Кооса, в заброшенной лачуге сквоттера в Плохой Траве. (ТБ 4)
2. название холма в 5 милях к востоку от Хэмбри, на котором жила ведьма РиаA perfect disc of silver—the Kissing Moon, as it was called in Full Earth—hung above the ragged hill five miles east of Hambry and ten miles south of Eyebolt Canyon. Below the hill the late summer heat still held, suffocating even two hours after sundown, but atop the Cöos, it was as if Reap had already come, with its strong breezes and frost-pinched air. For the woman who lived here with no company but a snake and one old mutie cat, it was to be a long night. — Идеальный серебряный диск, Целующаяся Луна, как ее звали на Полную Землю, висела над изъеденным ветром, лишенным растительности холмом, что высился в пяти милях к востоку от Хэмбри и в десяти милях к югу от каньона Молнии. Под холмом еще стояла жара позднего лета, удушливая даже через два часа после захода солнца, но на вершине Кооса уже миновала пора жатвы, и резкий ветер бросал в лицо порывы холодного воздуха. Женщине, которая жила на холме в компании старого кота-мутанта и змеи, предстояла долгая ночь. (ТБ 4)
On the hill of the Cöos, Rhea drew back from the glass, spitting curses in a voice so low and harsh that she sounded like her own snake. — На холме Коос Риа отпрянула от хрустального шара, изрыгая проклятия низким и скрипучим голосом, шипя словно змея. (ТБ 4)
It was the Cöos, the old witch-woman, and although her face was pocked with sores and her eyes sunk so deep in their sockets they could barely be seen, she gave off a peculiar sense of vitality. — То была ведьма с Кооса, и хотя лицо ее покрывали язвы, а глаза запали так глубоко, что едва виднелись в глазницах, она буквально лучилась энергией, губы ее ярко алели, словно она только что наелась зимней вишни. (ТБ 4)
