collapsed. The other soldiers rallied around him. The old monk came<br />
over to the huddled group of soldiers, knelt down and said,<br />
“We will stop for a short while and eat.”<br />
Cenat stood up, untied himself and walked off into the darkness.<br />
Confused, the soldiers started a fire and huddled around it. Hot, thirsty<br />
and exhausted, they chatted about the day’s events. Almost an hour<br />
later, the monk returned with two, small dead pythons around his neck,<br />
a bunch of bananas, several coconuts, and a bag made from banana<br />
leaves. The old monk just appeared by the fire, making the soldiers<br />
nervous. Cenat prepared and cooked the snakes; they drank the coconut<br />
milk and ate its milky flesh. The monk opened the bag, spilling the<br />
contents in front of the soldiers. He laid out several unfamiliar fruits,<br />
and banana leaf packages. He peeled back the leaves to reveal a foul<br />
smelling paste. Cenat told them to rub on their uncovered areas,<br />
informing them that it would keep insects away and relieve the stings<br />
and bites already received. While the soldiers complied, the monk split<br />
open the fruits, which had a sickly sweet aroma. Cenat then took a<br />
white poppy pod from his tunic, opened it, crushed the seeds between<br />
two stones, and sprinkled the powder over the open fruits. He gave the<br />
soldiers half each, saying,<br />
“Eat this. It will give you power and dull any pain.”<br />
He then tied himself back to the soldiers and waited until the last one<br />
had eaten his fruit.<br />
“Come on, we still have a long way to go.”<br />
“How long?” asked one weary soldier.<br />
“Oh, we are well over halfway,” replied Cenat as he turned and walked<br />
ahead.
