With the a clap of his hands a young priest appears at this side. "Gutpa, bring us some honey cakes and tea." He looks to Zhangyong and says "One must be aware of the body's needs as well as the mind's. Though with a properly trained spirit, the desires of the body are easily controlled." His gaze then rests upon the young Muni Adus. "A huntsman with no patience is a poor huntsman indeed."A pair of acolytes brings a plate of  bread, fruits, butter, and honey and a plate carrying a pot of hot tea and cups. The lama begins to speak after everyone has gotten their tea and any food they wish. "The Raja, Rani Ushas Dathik, has brought a matter to my attention and she has graciously allowed me to hand the matter in my own way. While it seems to be a purely temporal matter and thus under the authority of the Kshatriyas, I have recieved a vision from the devatas that there is a grave spiritial danger involved. In the villiage of Peoket, some 5 days ride from here, there has been a several deaths. The headman of the villiage, Ranja, had sent word to the Raja requesting help in the matter. He believes it to be the work of a rogue elephant, but none has seen the animal.  Through my visions I have seen a dark cloud over the villiage which seems to boil and grow in strength with a pair of red eyes in the middle of it. I felt great hate and anger." He pauses to take a drink of tea and look about the room.  "So, I am sending you to the villiage to investigate and stop the deaths. My good friend Surya Tapan, has graciously lent me the services of one of his most skilled bowmen, Yudhistra Mustaranak." He gestures to the seated bowmen. "While Zhangyong, will provide spiritral guidance and Adus Chwain his hunting expertise. Lastely, Mira Inushka, one of my most gifted Devapala will lead the group and act as my representative." He looks at Mira with a long steady gaze. "You will leave in the morning. Rooms will be made available to those who do not have them." With that the aged Brahmin stands to leave. "Suraya may I speak with you a moment." With that the two men begin to walk out.</blockquote>
