Video: UN: Kotowari

[The face that appears onscreen is a new one to all but a couple people so far - one sporting chalk-white skin, bright ceremonial makeup, and a placid half-smile on painted lips. He stares the camera down, so still it almost seems like a still image.

Until, that is, he speaks, softly and in slow, measured words.]

I have...been here since yesterday. I am no stranger to...travel. But I am a Medicine Seller by trade. And I have lost my supplies.

[He holds up a small bag to the camera - showing off stringy stalks of sun-baked desert weeds.]

I am finding...local plants. I plan to learn to use them. But I am also looking for places to acquire other things. Tea. Tobacco. Incense. Herbs.

Has anyone found the best sources for such things in this place?

[Ah. Another person brought here. Good. More questioners often leads to more answers.

He nods once, hair tumbling around his face. ]

Well. I will tell you what I learn...if you will do the same in return.

Does that...seem fair to you?

[mordwy]

That's very fair.

[justamedicineseller]

Good.

It is a deal, then.
