Nesirah 8
Nesirah watched her with a quiet patience. “Bergchi does not seek blind followers. She seeks those who are ready.”

Betoto 9
Betoto really wished she was somewhere else right now. “That’s great. I love that. So, um, how do you know when someone’s ready?”

Nesirah 9
“They know it themselves,” Nesirah answered, her voice steady. “They feel it in their soul, pulling them forward, showing them the path they must take.”

Nesirah nodded, as if she had been expecting the question. “Then the path is not theirs to walk. Not yet.”

Betoto 11
Betoto stared ahead at the winding jungle path, a bead of sweat forming at her temple. Oh thank goodness. “That’s very comforting,” she said quickly. “I’ll… definitely think about all of this.”

Nesirah 11
Nesirah studied her for a long moment. Betoto had no intention of following Bergchi, that much was clear. And yet, Nesirah did not feel disappointment. Not everyone was meant to hear the call at the same time. Some took longer to find the truth than others.
“That is all I ask,” Nesirah said finally. “That you think.”

Betoto let out a relieved sigh. “Thinking. Yes. I love thinking. I’ll be doing so much thinking about this, you wouldn’t believe.”

Nesirah 12
Nesirah turned her gaze back toward the trees, watching as the glowing crystals embedded in their trunks pulsed softly in the deepening twilight. “Then I hope Bergchi’s wisdom finds you when you are ready.”

Betoto forced another smile. “I hope so too,” she said, though deep down, she really, really hoped that moment was far, far away.
