Eager to show his favorite places to the healer, Antigone began to walk.

The boy would take her to the best spring with the brightest blue water. He had spent days there as a pup, watching the natural life that grew beneath the surface. The spring was so clear that he could see anything that flurried through it. The flow of the stream that carried it through Epoch was enough to keep it bright and clear, even after he had used it to bathe.

Antigone would share his time with Meadow. He enjoyed her company and her knowledge. He did not feel that she expected anything from him. The things she shared were always valuable, always soft, always offered with her utmost generosity. He felt that she reminded him of his mother. It must have been the reason why Tamar and the healer got along so well.

When they had finished, he offered to fetch her some food. The boy glistened with his clean coat and his intense expression.
