    You look around but you don’t see anyone at all.  You slowly scan the trees when you are suddenly tackled from behind. You reach for your dagger but then something solid hits your head and you black out.
    When you come to, you find yourself in a small, strange-looking hut.  Your hands are tied together and you are lying on a hard mat on the floor.  You hear voices outside and strain to hear what they’re saying.
    “...Should be awake by now,” you hear and the animal skin that covers the doorway is pulled aside.  You gasp at what you see.  Two Aures warriors stand over you.  One of the warriors grabs your arm and yanks you to your feet.  They lead you outside where you can see many other Nemes people like yourself.  Most are sitting inside a fenced-in area, guarded by Aures.
    You are led to one of the biggest huts.  You are trembling with fright on the inside but you remain calm and unshaken on the outside.  You are shoved inside where you lose your balance and fall on the ground.  You struggle to get up but your hands are tied.  Finally, one of the Aures roughly helps you to your feet.
    The chief then begins to question you.  He asks your name and about your family and your tribe.  You don’t want to tell him anything but are afraid of what might happen to you if you don’t.
    Do you answer the chief’s questions?  -30-
    Or do you refuse to say anything?  -31-
