Three entities, Cave Discoverer, Harvest Fetcher and Smith, accompany Flandry's group over the mountain. This means that, for the time being, Many Thoughts does not exist, also that heesh will not come back into existence if either of the units that heesh shares with Cave Discoverer dies or is killed during the journey. The units of the three entities accompanying the group can recombine as Iron Miner, Guardian of North Gate, Lightning Struck The House or other entities. They need a change and need to maintain the different entities and they also practice oneness ritualistically. Separating, the krippos go aloft as scouts while rukas gather berries. They can perform such routine tasks but can also respond to any need for reunion. Thus, the units alternate between animal consciousness and participation in rational consciousness but in different individual entities. What can this be like?

Kaor, Paul!
The question I've been wondering about is how entities like Smith (a blacksmith?) are able to handle and shape metals? Are rukas, the only Didonian entities with arms and hands, intelligent enough for the concentration needed for working metals when separated from their nogas and krippos? Rukas can't do black smith work perched on top of their nogas!
Ad astra! Sean
