Bojan (pronounced Boyan) was born in the years preceding the civil
war that tore apart his homeland of Yugoslavia. His namesake came
from the local Olympic hero of the 1976 Olympics; Bojan Kri aj.
Many unsolved issues caused the breakup of his family's homeland
and started the Yugoslav wars affecting Bosnia and Croatia. By the
age of five, he saw more horrors than many of us would see in more
than a lifetime. He will have to live with the scars of those
horrors for a lifetime. His parents, longing for peace and solace,
now being refugees were ready to leave the country where their
ancestors survived the horrors of World War Two and managed to
raise a family based on love, loyalty and religious values. They
decided to go to neighboring Romania. They wanted all the
conveniences and standards of a modern large city, but without the
large city atmosphere. They decided to settle in Cluj-Napoca, also
known as Cluj. It is the second largest city in Romania, dwarfed
only by the Capital of Bucharest. They settled in Cluj. Their
standard of living was modest at best. They were happy. They had
each other, Bojans' father found employment as a doctor for his
local community. Bojans' mother lived the life of a happily married
woman with a handsome son and stately husband. Their family was
respected and adored by all the townsfolk. Bojan, now six, started
first grade in his new home town. He had many new friends and was
growing mentally and emotionally. He was happy. He constantly
expressed his joy that he was able to leave the sites of horrors
back in his true homeland. Or did he ? One day while exploring his
new home of Cluj, he and a group of friends found this lush green
forest. It smelled of evergreens and blooming flowers. The birds
were chirping and other creatures of the woodlands roamed about.
The animal activities were restricted to the entrance of the forest
and no further. Why? What lurks within the Hoia-Baciu Forest and
why do the locals avoid it like the seven plagues of biblical
times. Only time will tell.
