A scene

The water skins burst on the second day in the Tu-Holo Desert, and the caravan turned back. The savant Yesui did not. She walks on alone across the cracked salt plain, her lips dry but her mind steady, and neither thirst nor hunger touches her. For nine days she walks, sleeping in the lee of dunes, speaking to no one. On the tenth she reaches the lost oasis she has been looking for all her life, kneels at the edge of the spring, and drinks, not because she needs to, but because it is beautiful.
