The trader-merchant grinned as he sipped his beverage.

"Feeling jittery? I'm certain a litle 'hair of the dog' would help...of course, this particular breed can only be found in a very particular place, and alas in my generosity to a new ally I am afraid I've shared the last 'follicle'."

Javier got the attention of one of the waitresses and ordered a glass of ice water for his companion.

"That will help. At least, it will help in the short term. Soon, we will be off on an exciting journey...pioneers! To success!"

Javier raised a thermos to toast, but Hale was oblivious, dipping his fingers int he ice water and sprinkling soothing cool drops onto his burning forehead.

"Don't worry," said the merchant cryptically, "My shuttle will be big enough no matter how large the problem becomes...."
