Arevin travels south into increasingly wild mountain terrain, feeling isolated and homesick while searching for the healer Snake, who was last seen heading south with a mysterious companion. He encounters two local herders, Jean and Kev, who confirm Snake's presence and direction but warn of the dangers ahead. Despite an offer of companionship from Jean, Arevin declines, reflecting on his exclusive emotional attachment to Snake and his hope to find her soon.
