The Healer's Price
A healer comes down from the village, an elder hung with shell and bone whom the people plainly hold in awe. Through the interpreter we understand that this one knows the country we are asking after: the springs where the sick are carried, and the places the people hold sacred. Such knowledge is not simply handed to armed strangers. There is a price, and it is not gold. It is respect, or a convincing show of it, with the right gifts offered in the right manner and the old courtesies observed to the letter. Our chaplain bristles at the heathen ceremony. Our quartermaster observes that a guide who knows where the water rises is worth a great deal more than the chaplain's comfort.
