When the brightness disappeared, Rahul blinked in front of him, hardly believing what he saw. In front of him were the well-known fields, the far-reaching horizon. An involuntary smile came to his lips, even though he felt good among the mountains, beyond Karrabata, deep inside he missed the place he called home.
"Um... this looks exactly like our territory." Citar stepped next to Rahul.
"Yes, it looks a lot like that, that's why I wasn't even surprised when I visited your lands, that is, except for the mountains." Rahul et go of Razvan's hand and scratched his neck.
"Why does the air smell so strange?"Wandi tilted his head to the side.
"Is that salt?" Benkó blinked, while Rahul laughed.
"It comes from the sea." He declared, when the relatively quiet fields were filled with a strange clicking sound, thanks to which the hegins pulled out their weapons, and Rahul laughed loudly. "What are you doing? It was just a clapper!" He wiped the tears from his eyes, which made everyone look at him in surprise.
"What is a clapper?" Achilleus frowned. Rahul turned towards the fields and held out his hand.
"Do you see that big pole over there?" He asked, and the others nodded. "That's the clapper. It is against the nyiumgyis so that they do not damage the crops." He shrugged.
"Against what?" Citar blinked at him incomprehension, and the chüvigh boy just shivered.
"You do not want to know." He stated. "This is one of the more expensive clappers, in order to operate the cheaper ones, you have to surround the area with a line, the nyumgyi get caught in the line and the clapper starts to rotate, making a clicking sound, which scares the nyumgyi, so they run away. This one works without a cord, it was a donation from a nobleman." Rahul shrugged. "But now we are not here to admire our field defense." He giggled when he noticed the team blinking curiously towards the field.
"Rahul is right guys, pull yourself together." Razvan spoke, hands folded in front of him. "Wandi, is there any danger nearby?" He asked, and the aforementioned shook his head. "Alright, then boys, don't be left behind, we won't take out weapons, we didn't come on a moonwalk." He looked at the team with a serious look, then looked at the one standing next to him. "Rahul, lead us." He smiled at the boy, who shook his head with a half-smile on his lips, then motioned for the team to follow him, and they set off towards the village on the horizon.
"Rahul! Annie, look it's Rahul! Rahul!" The small group had barely gone any further when a group of children's voices were heard from the fields. The chüvigh traveler stopped in one place and crouched down with a broad smile, when the children came running towards him.
"Hello! It's been a while since I saw you! You guys have grown a lot!" He stroked all of their heads. "So where did you leave Ed?" Rahul looked around.
"When we saw that it was you, he went to the village to tell the elders." A blonde girl grinned. "Who are your friends Rahul? Why are they in such colorful clothes?" They asked Rahul, pointing to the team behind him.
"They..." Here the person being asked looked back, then turned back to the girl with a wicked smile. "I found hegins and brought them home to show you what they are like." He stood up, and with his words he managed to make the whole group of children stare at the group with shining eyes and open mouths.
"Are you really hegins?" One of the boys asked, and the colorfully dressed group slowly nodded one by one.
"Can you fly on a sword?" Asked another, while Achilleus folded his arms in front of him and turned up his nose.
"What's so big of a deal about that? There are far more exciting things than flying on a swords." He turned his head.
"What?" A little girl stood in front of him, and Achilleus grinned and stomped, thanks to which the ground next to the girl rose and after it took shape, it became completely like the little girl. "This is amazing!" The girl covered her mouth.
"Show off." Benkó hit him in the side, then he snapped his fingers and small blue flames appeared in the air.
"Benkó! Remove that immediately, it is dangerous if children touch it!" Razvan said before the boy pulled himself out and the blue flame disappeared.
"What do the others do?" The little girl blinked at Rahul.
"Lynx." Citar spoke suddenly, when the lynx appeared next to him.
"He has a pet like Rahul!" The children were excited.
"Rahul..." A little boy tugged on the said boy's dress.
"Yes?" Rahul asked with a smile.
"Have you seen a dragon?" The child put his hands together, and Citar laughed.
"Oh, not only he saw one, he even signed a contract with him!"
"Don't be jealous." Rahul gently hit Wandi Citar on the head.
"You are crazy, Bolacsuk! Dragons can no longer be found." Suk grimaced.
"Rahul... Would you help me out?" Citar grinned at the boy, and Rahul sighed.
"Vanne." He whispered in front of him and suddenly the bright sun was covered by a strange figure that got closer and closer to the ground, then behind the team the huge green dragon hit the ground.
"Did you call me master?" Came the question from the dragon's mouth.
"I just wanted to introduce you to my family. I hope you do not mind." Rahul put one hand on his hip, but the group of children and the hegins around him just stared at the appeared dragon with open mouths.
"Told you! It was there all along under Sárkányhát and we didn't even notice it." Citar turned his head.
"Little Hegin, we met a long time ago." Said the dragon, looking at Citar, then suddenly turned towards the road. "I think it's time for me to leave, master, the children's parents will be scared for the little ones." He lowered his head.
"Don't!" All the children cried at the same time.
"Can't you be little again?" Rahul asked, but he had barely finished the question when the dragon flew into the air and shrink and rested on Rahul's shoulder.
"This is amazing." The children's eyes sparkled.
"Rahul!" More happy voices were heard as the adults of the village reached the team and the helpless Rahul found himself in a huge hug after a moment.
"I missed you too!" Rahul giggled when he caught his breath again.
"Are they your friends?" Asked an older man who was standing in front of everyone.
"Yes." Rahul nodded.
"In this case, we welcome you to our humble village, my children. Accept our invitation to a feast. It's true that we don't have a lot of things after the winter fire, since our little Rahul is gone, so he couldn't heal the fields, but what we have is more than enough for the village, so we're happy to share it with you." The old man smiled at the team. "Oh, how rude of me, I'm Baebel, the village chief. Who are you young masters?" He asked the hegins, and they all looked at Razvan, who just nodded.
"I'll start, after all, Rahul met me for the first time."'Citar grinned. "My name is Citar, I am a hegin of the Bolacsuk tribe. Thank you very much for your invitation." He bowed deeply in front of the village people, who all looked at him in surprise.
"This is how they say hello, it's like a handshake for us." Rahul explained.
"I am next." Benkó stepped forward. "I am Bokló Benkó, the candidate for the title of chieftain of the Bokló tribe." He also bowed.
"I am Achilleus, hegin of the Motumisz tribe." The boy stood next to Benkó.
"I am Zovárd Suk, a hegin of the Zovárd tribe." Suk also bowed, when Teveli hit him in the side.
"And the prospect of the title of tribal chief, even if, you want to deny it." He rolled his eyes and stepped forward. "I am Teveli, a hegin of the Koál tribe." He bowed politely.
"I am Vojk Wandi, the candidate for the title of chieftain of the Vojk tribe. At your service." Wandi bowed politely. And when the team straightened up, they looked almost as one man towards their leader, whose hands were clenched into fists and whose head was bowed. Suddenly, in front of everyone's eyes, he knelt before the villagers.
"I'm Zaukán Razvan. The next chief of the Zaukán tribe." He took a deep breath and put his hands in front of him, then pressed his forehead to the ground. "Please forgive me."
