STORY
Unknown Location, Unknown Time
Reed and his travelling companion looked through the boughs of a bush, and weighed the man.
"Does not seem like much of a threat," he whispered to Slade.
"Why should he be a threat? He is an old man."
"I don't trust anything, or anyone..."
"Perhaps you should leave some space in your heart for trust and love," hissed Slade.
"Are you still on about that bloody cat? Just another ephemera in your life and you look like you could jump off a cliff."
"Cats, like all creatures of this earth, are sacred and must be loved like one loves a mother."
Slade and Reed started. Above them was the old man, whose shuffling footsteps had not been heard over the conversation.

Anga Kingdom, Unknown Time
Reed still did not fully trust the new interlocutor. Though he seemed to have a simple mind compared to they, borne from his coming from a past age. An idea sprung into Reeds mind.
"We are indeed the Yatri that you seek!" he exclaimed, "Take us to your leader and we shall share knowledge that will make your mind meet the cosmos."
"Cos...mos?" replied Erben. "I don't buy it. You all seem far too normal and mortal to be of any deity. Under whose authority do you travel as the Yatri?"
Him scampered off up a tree as Reed boomed, "BY THE POWER OF THE 1.21 GIGAWATTS ILLUMINTAI, NOW 1V1 ME SCRUB OR SWEAR DOWN I'LL NOSCOPE YOUR NAN."
Erben cowered under such apparent words of eldritch origin and mystical power. "I understand, I understand," he said.
From the tree above them, a ball of leaves fell, followed by Him, chattering merrily and wielding his new creation.
"That looks like Mr Jinx," said Zed, who looked healthier than he had for a while.
"Jiiiinx ! Old man !" replied Him, and he scuttled off in the direction Reed and Slade had taken.
"Now onto more questions, mortal!" boomed Reed anew. "Where can we get water? Will we have to wait for the monsoon, or drill down to an aquifer, or will you start treating the Yatri with the dignity they have come to deserve, having travelled far beyond the scope of moons and galaxies to reach you."
"There's a stream five minutes away in that direction," said Erben, pointing towards some trees. "You should go off to get some for your dying friend here. Do not fret, I will ensure he is safe."

Slade and Reed are beset by an old man.
Reed convinces Erben that they are the Yatri. Him runs off in search of the old man after having crafted a Mr Jinx made of leaves. Erben suggests Reed goes to get water whilst he remains and takes care of Zed.
