Nkushun

The tacket shivers and stretches its arms.

I waited until I lost sight of the magnificent sand whale, but the heavy rain kept my body full.

From the sky where the rain clouds have gone, bright and intense sunshine is pouring down, and all of a sudden your clothes and body are dry. The vaporization heat cooled my body and sparked me.

Are you okay?

"It's okay. It's just a little cold. I think it'll be warm in the sun soon."

I laughed at Chante, who looked at me worriedly.

It wasn't just the tacket that got wet. Chante, Ur, everyone is.

At that time, Ulu blubbed his body and cut the hair water.

The splashes of water that Ulu unleashed sprinkled around, and the tobacco that had begun to dry quickly returned to the flood again.

"Whoa, whoa, whoa! Why don't you go away!?

Angered by Brigitta, who clasped his hands to her hips and glanced up, Ulu sat with his legs together in front of her and lowered his head.

I'm sorry, Brigitta.

In exchange for an apology, Chante sighs, "Well, that's fine."

"I've finished my job. Would you like to go to a nearby city for a moment? If you stay here forever, you'll end up like a sun-dried brick."

Taketo was also very much in favor of it.

And the voice of a man unfamiliar with it comes flying in.

"You guys are all right!

I saw a couple of men on camels running towards us.

They wear vibrant indigo turbans on their heads and ethnic costumes like ponchos of the same color.

"They are desert people who have lived around here for a long time."

Karon, who was next door, whispered to his ear and told me so.

"Desert people....."

When they come near the tackets, one of the leading ones comes down from the camel and approaches with a big crotch.

"We've come to see what's going on in the desert. Until now, sand whales were raging in stormy rain."

As he approached in the desert breeze, he was a tough man tall enough to look up. The tone is friendly, but the eyes are sharply focused on us as if they were worthy.

"We are the King's ordered Magic Beast poacher. I asked about the sand whale. You don't have to think that danger is over."

Karon explains this by showing the "King's Decree" wooden tag from his pocket.

The man looked at the wooden tag handed to him by Karon and turned it upside down, but he knew it was real. Return it to Karon immediately.

"Is the danger gone?

She is brushing her thick beard and still has an unbelievable face.

"Yes, the sand whale runaway has stopped. Don't worry anymore. You're from the nearest city of Oasis."

"Yes, we are from the city of Raksha, just a short distance from here. A caravan of peddlers just crossed the desert rushed into the city. When I heard that the sand whales were running towards us, the city was in a mess. We managed to get evacuated, and we came to see how it was, but we couldn't make it so rough with sand whales."

The man's expression clouds his face because he remembers what he saw then.

"All of a sudden, I stopped running and grew up. I wondered what had happened, and when I got closer, you were there.... are you the ones who stopped the runaway?"

In response to the man's question, Taketto looks at Karon. Because I was wondering how far I could be honest. But Karon pointed lightly at the tacket and told him.

"Yes, he's the one who stopped."

"... eh?

The man stares at the bewildered tacket with an overwhelming look. And when I took the turban and put it on my chest, I twisted my face so that I could stop crying.

"... thank you. Thanks to you, the city was saved without a single sacrifice.

Okay. If only those giant sand whales had attacked me, I wouldn't have stopped shaking just imagining. Thank you so much... thank you very much "

When the man pinched the turban to his side, he wrapped it around the right hand of the tacket with both hands and held it firmly.

"What?... ah, yes... But it's not like I'm the only one."

I don't know what to do with being hit with gratitude straight in front of me, and I look to my friends for help.

"Isn't that good? Without Sochi, we couldn't stop that beast. Be honest with the humans."

That's what Brigitta said beside me, and I wonder if that's what the tacket is.

"Ha, yes...."

"Now, even if you're here, it's fine. I'll show you my city. Go ahead, go ahead."

The man often said that, without explaining the situation, the tackets were headed to the city of Raksha.

The city was only a kilometer away. If we had stopped the sand whale a little later, the giant sand whale would have trampled the city and suffered enormous damage.

When I thought about it, I felt like my back was falling from a nasty sweat.

The city was spreading around the pond. Around the pond are houses lined with lush greenery and bricks. Looking into the pond, I saw water gushing in and out. I wonder if groundwater is coming out.

On the way, the man told me that the people of the desert once lived nomadically in the desert. In recent years, however, there has been a surge in settlers, and the largest city is Lakshire.

They took the tukets to the largest mansion in the city by the pond. They say it's the chief's mansion.

The guided hall is lined with traditional patterned woven carpets. When I was told to wait there and did so, a small old woman appeared from behind following her servants.

Dressed in a bright red Sally ethnic costume, she gently grips her hand with a sneezing smile as she approaches the tacket. It was a very soft and warm hand.

Later on, I learned that she was the grandmother of the man who guided me.

"I am Sir Rakshi, the chief of the clan here. I don't really have a word of thanks for saving the city this time. I'd like to thank you for something, but as you can see, this is a desert enclosed city. Nothing can be called our property but livestock. Is it troublesome for you to offer goats and sheep to dwell in the kingdom?

"Sheep..."

"If you'd like to come in, I'll give you as much as I can. If it's a goat, it could be 100 or 200. Because I have a great favor for you that I can never repay."

Ah, eh...

Taketh shook Bumbun and his head sideways, imagining that he would bring the goats back to King's Landing. As he watched, Sil laughed like a girl.

"I thought so. So let us entertain you at least as our feelings."

After a while, when it was ready, the feast began.

Women in colorful Sally carry plates of food one after the other. Steamed cuisine made with banana leaves and whole pork. Fish fries. Stewed dishes. There are many other dishes that you can't tell by looking at.

It was an amount that the four of them could not eat alone.

"Eat and drink as much as you like."

Then the people of the desert joined together, and the banquet lasted three days and three nights.
