EDEN, ARE YOU JUST GOING TO TRAIL BEHIND US?
YOU USED TO BE THE FIRST ONE RUNNING AHEAD.
HE'S BEEN AWFULLY SLUGGISH DURING THE DAY LATELY.
WHO KNOWS WHAT HE'S DOING EVERY NIGHT.
AS IF YOU'RE ANY BETTER.
HE'S TOO BUSY PİCKİNG ON ME
MIND YOUR OWN BUSINESS.
HE'S GOTTEN CRANKIER TOO.
MAYBE IT'S BECAUSE HIS CHIEFTAIN TRIAL IS COMING UP.
...DAY AND NIGHT,
RIVER IS RIGHT THERE BESIDE HIM.
I CAN'T
KEEP STANDING BY ANY LONGER.
THE SCENT IS SIMILAR,
AND SO IS THE TEXTURE.
MOST IMPORTANTLY, IT'S HARMLESS...
THE COLOR'S A LITTLE DIFFERENT, BUT ONCE IT'S GROUND UP, HE WON'T NOTICE...
PLEASE...
ASHA!
ASHA!
?
ASHA!
WHERE'S ASHA?
I'm off.
Yeah, see you later.
DOES THAT BRAT HAVE A NOSE LIKE HIS BROTHER OR SOMETHING...?
GARGLE...
IS HE SOME KIND OF EXPERT APPRAISER...?!
IT'S ALREADY GONE BAD.
STOP CRYING. PUT THIS ON, AND IT'LL HEAL IN NO TIME.
THE WHOLE SETTLEMENT IS PRACTICALLY AN ASHA FIELD.
THIS ISN'T GOING TO WORK.
HM?
WHAT THE...
UGH.
WE NEED TO TALK.
JUST THE TWO OF US.
DID YOU BRING ME HERE IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT TO TEND THE FIELD OR SOMETHING?
WHY'D YOU ASK ME TO COME HERE?
THIS IS WHERE YOU GAVE ME MY NAME.
JUST LIKE MY NAME, THIS FLOWER HAS ALL SORTS OF USES.
IN FURNITURE, MEDICINE, EVEN WEAPONS.
BUT YOU KNOW, RIGHT?
IT'S ACTUALLY POISONOUS.
IT CAN TREAT INJURIES AND EASE PAIN,
BUT IF YOU CONSUME TOO MUCH...
THE POISON BUILDS UP, AND IT CAN EVEN KILL YOU.
I THINK
THIS FLOWER IS MAKING YOU LOSE TOUCH WITH REALITY.
...ARE YOU LISTENING?
SNORE...
YOU'VE REALLY GROWN UP. GIVING ME ADVICE NOW.
YOU'VE ALWAYS BEEN PERCEPTIVE,
SO I FIGURED YOU ALREADY KNEW.
BUT YOU HAVEN'T EVEN HAD YOUR COMING OF AGE CEREMONY YET.
THIS ISN'T SOMETHING YOU NEED TO WORRY YOURSELF WITH.
YOUR LACK OF GROWTH IS A MUCH BIGGER PROBLEM.
I'M BEING SERIOUS...!
YEAH,
YOU'RE ALWAYS SERIOUS.
LEARN TO LOOSEN UP A LITTLE, LITTLE SISTER.
WHERE ARE YOU GOING?! I'M NOT FINISHED...!
IF YOU WANT TO GROW TALLER, YOU NEED TO SLEEP EARLY. WE'LL TALK TOMORROW.
EDEN...!
IF YOU WON'T STOP ON YOUR OWN,
THEN I WILL,
HURRY...
STOP YOU MYSELF.
HEY!!!!!!!!!!
WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!!!!!!!!
Eden has been sleepy and grumpy during the day lately; those around him attribute it to the approaching chief exam. River is by his side day and night, and someone says they can no longer just watch from the sidelines. The scent and texture of the Asha flower are examined, with the thought that it would go unnoticed once ground up. Asha suddenly disappears, and the settlement has almost turned into an Asha field. In a private nighttime conversation in the field, it is explained that the flower is poisonous and can kill if consumed in excess, and a decision is made to stop Eden.
