Visha and the three men were escorted to a large open space.
As they walked through the River clan, they noticed the clothing they wore. It was made with reeds, woven and dyed. They could see some people wearing polished stones, fish bones, and shells.
As Reeva led the way, Visha noticed that they no longer looked at them with wary eyes. The children had once again started playing. The women continued about their business. Except for some especially curious ones who continued to stare, most people left them to their own devices.
As they approached the place Reeva was leading them to, they heard, before seeing, the rush of water. It cascaded over a rock, muffling the sound outside its reach.
Reeva approached an older female. He spoke calmly, "This is the Warm Pack; they are here to offer their friendship." He gestured to Visha and her group, introducing them individually as well. Straightening up, he turned to the group, "This is Mira; she speaks for our clan."
