Chapter 3
The next day Chris and the Blacks started out. \"Good to meet you Chris.\" Mr Black\'s voice called over the noise of the air car. Chris nodded to Mr Black with a sad smile and returned to watching the world go by. The countryside was beautiful, golden trees glowed against the azure sky in the distance their destination, N\'rih. Mrs Black smiled at Chris. \"Maybe you shall see your friend, darling.\"
About half and hour later they landed, A tall Nur\'zian came to greet them. \"Welcome L\'lat Black, you have guests with you this time, I shall enjoy making new friends,\" The Nur\'zian bowed. \"You have come at fortunate time, we are to have a ceremony for our new Ka-ri.\"
\"You are retiring Ka-ri Phit?\" Mr Black seems surprised.
\"Yes L\'lat, I am leaving for the Gha-than after I have passed my title on.\"
\"Who is to become the new Ka-ri?\"
\"Mtan, my first born.\" Chris\'s eyes widened. \"He is preparing for the ceremony now. You are invited to be our guests and indeed look round if you wish.\"
\"Thank you Ka-ri Phit, it is our honour.\" Mr Black bowed to the man.
Chris wandered aimlessly through the village watching the people going about their daily tasks. It was a beautiful place really, made from the local wood, all the different hues of pale bronze gave it the appearance of beaten metal. A whisper caught his attention. \"Chris!\" He looked round to see Vpit peering from between two houses. \"Here, follow.\" She darted off and Chris had to run to keep up, after a brief but fast journey she stopped at the edge of the village were a lone house stood slightly apart from the others. \"In.\" Her slender hand pointed to the door.
As he entered he saw a man tending to person laid on a bed. \"Hello.\" Chris said softly. The man by the bed looked up then turned to face him. \"Etap.\" He said and tapped himself. Chris did likewise. \"You the off-worlder?\" Chris nodded not quite trusting himself to speak. \"Good, he need you, first-born needs you to touch.\" Etap pointed to the bed, Chris walked over and pulled the blanket back to reveal Lput suffering in a feverish state. \"My god, Lput!\" Chris leant over and kissed his gentle lover on the head.
\"Hold him, need your arms.\" Sitting on the bed Chris wrapped Lput in his arms and whispered words of comfort to him.
After a time Etap tapped him on the shoulder. \"He sleeps, we talk now.\" Chris looked at Lput who seemed to be resting easier now. Gently he untangled himself and lay Lput\'s head onto the cushion that served as a pillow. Etap beckoned him to a low table well away from Lput so as not to disturb him. \"You love him truly?\" Etap stared at Chris as if he was trying to sense what this out-worlder wanted with his son. Chris paused and realised that he did love Lput. \"I do.\" Etap smiled broadly and grasped Chris\'s hand. \"Good, he and you are good together, I make you one of my family.\" Chris realised that Etap didn\'t have all the words he wanted but knew the honour that had been given to him. \"How many children do you have Etap?\"
\"Three, Lput, Vpit and Krup, but last born no here now.\"
\"He died?\"
\"Yes, died, very bad sickness, long ago now.\" Etap looked sorrowful for a moment. \"Lput and Vpit good children but Lput can no longer stay, you take in three days, well then, and live happy with many children of your own.\" Chris wondered what Etap meant by this. \"If you no take Mtan hurt Lput, must go now ceremony starts soon, be missed if not there.\" Etap signalled for Vpit to lead him back to the village centre.
As Chris looked round the hall where the ceremony was being held he saw decorated bowls hung from the ceiling, the glow of the fires in them providing the light. The crowd grew silent as Phit walked to the front. The ceremony was really quite short but by the respect of the crowd Chris knew that it would be taken seriously. The traditional words were spoken and a garland put round Mtan\'s neck and then it was over. The Blacks decided it would be best if they left then so as not to inhibit the people as the celebrated their new leader.
Later chapters will be hotter, promise ^~
