two americans are travelling in czechoslovakia, they are strolling in a town, and children are watching them from behind a church wall.

"they (children) stood just beyondthe gates, a dozen heads peeking over the low wall. i could hear them babbling in Czech, a phrase that sounded like podvržené dítě popping up like the leitmotif of their clattering song..."

later on, when the man confronts one those kids, she tells that he is a changeling/ghosts-like creature - if that really matters.
