An Ante man dressed as a farmer was brought into the room.
Giles scrutinized him for a moment and praised, "Farmers are most familiar with the conditions of rainfall and the earth, very good. Ask him how much autumn rain can affect transportation."
The lieutenant who brought in the farmer immediately asked in the Ante language.

The lieutenant cursed in the Ante language, "Suka! Answer the question!"
The farmer glanced at him and then at Giles, "The impact of the rain is just that, isn't it? Mule carts can't carry too much, or the mules won't be able to pull. Also, you must reinforce the axles of the carts in advance, or there might be accidents.
