He sleeps for a long time but Sameth does wake up and simply lays there, everything hurts so he decides to not move.

Sabriel woke up too and is around and about but if anyone wishes to talk to Sam, he's not going anywhere for a while.

"The medicine of the future is wondrous," Teja says, as he cannot imagine what else would have healed him.

[makesthings]

"My mother healed me."

[ostro_goth]

"Ahhh," Teja says. "So it was the sort of poison that needed magic to free you from?"

[makesthings]

"I'm not sure, we've just always used the Charter for healing."

[ostro_goth]

"With magic like that," Teja says, "who needs technology?"

[makesthings]

"Sometimes it can be useful to have other things since the Charter can't do everything just a lot of things and you have to know what to do."

[ostro_goth]

"How to squeeze into a little bag, and turn into a cat, for one thing," Teja says, as that is something he has done.

[makesthings]

"Yes, Charter skins are very complex and hard to do."

[ostro_goth]

"Mogget made me three," Teja says, quietly. "And one of them, I wore not myself, but gave to" -- my Charlie -- "one very dear to me, so we could speak to the forge cats together. For that, Mogget had given me two at once. Even though even for him, they are hours of work. He is truly a good friend!"

[makesthings]

"To you, yes."

[ostro_goth]

"You may yet earn his trust," Teja says. "Mogget here is no longer who he was in your world. He has friends here -- good and true friends, many more than me, for whom he has done amazing things."

[makesthings]

"I know that, its just for now he thinks me nothing more than an idiot. I'm not sure he's really that wrong."

[ostro_goth]

Long silence.

"If he truly thought so, then he would be," Teja says.

[makesthings]

"How can you be sure?"

[ostro_goth]

"I just know," Teja says, "because I am Teja. It is in my nature."

No, he cannot be any more precise about this one thing.

[makesthings]

He wants to believe Teja, he really does, its just hard.

[ostro_goth]

"You will see," Teja says. "You will learn; you will mature."

[makesthings]

"Yes, I hope its into something closer to what I should be."

[ostro_goth]

"It will be into that which you must be," Teja says, a bit cryptically.

[makesthings]

Sameth just flops back on the bed and yawns,

"I hope so."

[ostro_goth]

"I will let you rest now," Teja says. "Now that I know you are still reasonably in one piece."

[makesthings]

"Yes, thank you, Teja."

[ostro_goth]

Teja nods to him, and quietly leaves.-

Sameth doesn't go back to sleep just lays in bed thinking about what Teja said.
