Talk by the Flame

The old man took away his snake corpse and gave it to some woman in the tribe that would make him a good set of shirts and pants. 

Alex told the chief that they could use the rest of the monster for whatever they wanted as that was all he could do for letting them stay there.

Of course, there was the case of him having to do nothing as strength was what these people revered, and would let him get away with almost anything just based on his strength. But he didn't feel like doing that since he had his own values that were different from what these people followed.

He walked out with the chief and went somewhere to talk. The chief was curious about where Alex was from and Alex used the opportunity to learn more about the Southern Continent from the father that the daughter would likely not know.

"These fish you get from the Maroon Bay. How often do you go to get them?" he asked.
