We talked for a bit. That evening we would have a feast to welcome everyone into the tribe. It would be a time to meet everyone and for me to speak ab...ut what was expected by me of those who lived here. I certainly wanted everyone starting off on the right foot. Gogra agreed. After a few more minutes I excused myself to see to the feast. Gogra let me go.The feast of welcome went well.

An officer volunteered to drive his truck, and they all.
