In "The feather pillow" by Horacio Quiroga when the parasites don't have a human to feed on they usually are small, they are parasites of feathered creatures. This parasite, in particular, has been feeding on Alicia's blood, that is why it became so monstrous. We learn about this in the last parragraph of the story.
Two children were taken to the apple orchard on a fine day with their family. They picked a lot of apples, and had them all in a basket once they went home. Once at home, the parents told the children to each choose and apple to eat. The first child chose a glossy apple with a brilliant skin, which had no marks or dents. The second child chose a duller looking apple, with a couple of dents and some bruises. The first child bit into their Apple, only to find a worm had been their first. The worm left a tunnel in the Apple, and the child discarded the Apple. The second child bit into their Apple to find that it was very sweet, and had no worm inside. The children were careful about picking their apples from then on.
Egyptian beliefs about future existence are not readily defined because the Egyptians are a very ancient civilization, making it difficult to study their religious documents.
We can arrive at this answer because:
- The Egyptians constitute a millenary civilization, with several different types of documents and that developed over time.
- This meant that the Egyptians had a very wide variety of religious documents.
- In addition, the Egyptian religion and society was influenced by other societies over time, which changed their beliefs and culture.
This made the study of Egyptian documents difficult and translated into many different languages, which had to adapt and simplify many concepts, which often left the Egyptian beliefs imprecise and poorly defined.
