Even though it was a really long day, Carter was rather excited and felt very awake now that they were back at the temple. Why? Because he looked forward to bonding with Tuya. This would be the final link and nothing else would separate them as mates then. He asked Vintas about how it was supposed to go and got an explanation.
Carter had gone and done a few things before coming back to the temple. Tuya had some more tasks to finish, and the others were also helping about in the oasis. Vintas spend his entire day in the stores looking over and inventorying everything with Portia. Portia seemed really excited to learn all about things down there and help inventory. Two nerds as Tazani said, but you know it took one to know one.
