He ceased, and for a short minute there was silence. Then spoke Vreenya: "O Kromno, master! We would question you!" "I will answer and say only the thing that is." "First, can our people live in that other, lighter air?" "They can live. We have prepared caves for you. At first you shall not see the light.
With some degree of fluency for in the months Beatrice and he had spent in the Abyss they had acquired much of the Merucaan tongue he said: "I greet you, Vreenya. I greet my people, all. Harken. I have made a long journey to return to you. I am tired and would rest. There be many things to tell you, but not now. I would sleep and eat. Is my house in readiness?"
And with a command to Vreenya: "Make way for me, your master!" he advanced through the lane which the crowding Folk made for him. As, followed by the councillor and the elders, he climbed the slippery causeway and passed through the labyrinthine passes of the great gate, strange emotions stirred him. The scene was still the same as when he first had witnessed it.
The dark times are half of each day. You shall have many hours for the fishing. Even that will suffice to live; but the flesh and fruits will not hurt you. They are good. There will be food for all, and far more than enough for all!" Vreenya pondered again. "We would talk together, we elders," he said, simply. "It meets my pleasure," answered Allan. "And when ye have talked, I desire your answer!"
He felt a need to rest, and think, and plan, to recuperate from the long journey and to recover poise and strength. And with relief, as he raised his hand for silence, he perceived the wrinkled face of one Vreenya, head councillor of Kamrou, his predecessor. Him he summoned to come close, and to him gave his orders.
Now a peculiarly malevolent expression lay upon the evil countenance. The dead-white skin wrinkled evilly; the pink eyes gleamed with disconcerting malice. But Stern, dead tired, only glanced at H'yemba for a second, then with Vreenya entered the hut and bade the door be closed.
