Alverten was tired too. He still spoke to Yahweh a little more, he knew the connection he might have with Yahweh was important, but still he was not as sure about some things as those who had led him and the rest in the group all this way from where they had been, in the old settlement, Ariyah. He still fell asleep soon afterward.
In the morning Alverten got up and prepared himself, and took the container to gather water from the spring, the first of several chores for the day. Once he had the container as full as he could manage without spilling on the water back, he turned to go. But then he saw not far from him, among the shrubs, was that Big Hairy, just staying there and watching him!
