*Looks around* All the houses are built out of the things you can find just about everywhere. Not exactly anachronistic.

Well, what's one thing in this village that isn't anywhere else? Other than people. I doubt the Light Bringers are afraid of the people.

It is. In this test you will work with us—we have the knowledge you need. Just as you will work with us as intelligent beings, you will work with other elements of nature--now you create life, but soon you will exploit its struggle and then death itself.

When we reach the pearl. *After a bit, we come to the outskirts of the village; a ways away there is a carcass of a wolf-looking animal surrounded by animals that look like lions; the centre of the carcass seems to grow a pale green light* The pearl is there, in the gray animal.

Notice everything. Use what you have to your advantage. For example, the bug eaters-- *Points at the Venus Fly Traps above* are attracted to light. The wood here is much brighter than what little light filters through the trees. You might have seen this earlier if you were paying attention, this and many other characteristics of the rainforest around you. Make sure you listen to everything we say.

One will suffice for the two of you.

And the beginning of your test is always to retrieve one. We will give you advice, but if we go too near, the pearl will die. Conveniently, there is one near the outskirts of the village.

Good. You see, we are excited every time new travellers come to take the test. In order for our people to have offspring, a pearl of life—which is the source of our name—must be retrieved and given to one of the parents. But the rainforest remembers us. Each being can only ever retrieve one in his lifetime.
