Rayek ventures out into the Festival, but is overwrought by the healers’ combined presences. Ynderra, Leetah, and Trollkiller try to comfort him, but Leetah flees; Trollkiller remains to give Rayek an in-depth massage while Ekuar and Ynderra slip out.
While Talek has a word with Rhentagoth at the Festival of Flood and Flower, Ynderra playfully amuses herself with Startoucher’s company and Cutter and Spidersilk amuse themselves with the pole-balancing game.
