The centaur tries to communicate with the human, but the creature is too scared to speak. He tries to drink the water he has been given by the starry-eyed hess, but is unable to. The creature tries to tell the human that he is not a monster, but a human. The human responds by saying that it is impossible for the centaur to communicate, as he was alone when he rescued the creature. He tells the creature that human life is not making him happy, and that the human is worried for him.
