His time in the infirmary was remarkably short thanks to Tavina's attention, and when he finally felt able-bodied enough to explore Raimo did not think to ask her first. He got up, stretched, breathed deeply of the cool air within the mesa corridors, and made his way.
He passed individuals tending to all manner of work: meat being organized, beds being tidied, even as he passed the wellspring he saw fellahin sprinkling flower buds atop the water. It was all so fascinating! Raimo was tempted to ignore his debt and seek each of them out for questions.
The man had thought he had woken at a suitable time to be of use, but the other inhabitants — those not deemed servants — were nowhere to be seen. Raimo ambled along until he was above-ground, then looked to the sky and saw a dimming light upon the horizon as well as a diminishing purple glow.
The mazoi had slept cleanly through the day.
