Valerian heard the tweeting and chirping, he understood that someone has entered the woods to find him. He became alert from this.
He thought, 'You want to find me so that you can take me back. I may not be very strong now, but you surely will not have it easy to find me.'
He collected the fruits and left the place, making sure to erase all the traces of his presence. He was going to check, who has entered the forest to catch him, but he needed help.
Traversing through the forest, Valerian quickly came to the burrow where Gleam was. He looked inside and found that the snake was not there. Thinking about the time he realized that the snake must have gone hunting.
It was night and the progress of the people will not be fast. So he decided to wait, and eat the fruits he had collected. After an hour, the snake returned, and the bulging belly was an obvious indication that he had a feast.
Valerian asked, 'Gleam, can I ask for your help?'
