 Vaughan was holding a tall glass of water, which Calvin happily took.

 	Thank you Vaughan, I owe you.
 
 ―Sir, Vaughan started hesitantly. You might need to be careful with that.

+	We don't know what Yakaterina wanted, and she could have been trying to trick you.
 	Or somehow convert you over to the Hierarchy.

+―I know, Vaughan.

+Calvin sighed.
+―If I want to use this, I'll have to learn how to control it.
+	Clearly it's a powerful tool, but I'm not really sure what happened.
+	I think I felt the stone table and helped it become soil, somehow?
+	The manual just talked about a breathing exercise, not actually doing anything.

+Calvin stood.
+He felt okay on his feet.
+The two books were lying on top of the pile of dirt, and looked unchanged.
+He opened up the notebook, and saw he'd written down what the Voice had said to him.
+
+―Vaughan, I think it was the Voice somehow.
+	I wrote down that it said I could help my people, but why?
+	Am I doing something wrong by wanting to help them?

+―Calvin, are you sure we should be here?
+	If we're back home, we could talk to some scholars, or if you trust what Yakaterina told you, maybe Auroklos would know more?
+	But we're out of our depth, right?
+	It's not just politics anymore, this is all of us yaks, and it might be irresponsible to do it alone.
+
+―Auroklos was pretty clear that Mountberg was our only hope.
+	Maybe the voice was trying to get me to go home to help the people there?
+	Unless it wanted me to go to Mountberg?
+	Argh!
+
+―Sir, we're not going to figure this out right now.
+	You need to rest a minute, and we'll have to figure out what our options even are.
+	We'll talk to the chief and see how far away Mountberg will be, and make a decision then.
+	Sound good?
+
+―Yeah, thanks Vaughan.
+	Sounds good to me.
+
+―I'll make sure you get some privacy, get some rest and I'll see you soon.
+	And please don't try anything else from that book.

+Vaughan left the room, and Calvin tried his best to quiet his troubled thoughts as he drifted into a light nap.
