Pensive approaches Sa'id and Farron and lays a long hand on Farron's shoulder. "We should speak a moment-- I have some questions to ask about what you discovered about our enemy, and some information for you as well."

"I am the stranger, here, so I will start: I am Asha Eradu-- I can feel emotions from other people sometimes. I can feel Kor Garesh in his mountain, hungering for souls. I have felt him stretch his will out to people in Overlook, influencing their actions toward violence and despair. What I know from this is that Kor Garesh is hungry and undisciplined. He is a. . . bear, waking up from winter. There is cunning, but I do not believe that He is a tactician."

Pensive then relates the whole tale of his meeting with the two spies in Overlook, how they were looking still for Mission's child. "I don't know where Mission went after I left him that night. I hope he has taken the Kaishin home. But the fact that Kor Garesh isn't omnipresent is a great comfort."

"What did your studies discover of our enemy, beyond his name?"
