The next morning, the two of them discuss the previous night's events. They realize that they've been eavesdropping on each other's conversations, and they decide to eavesdrop on the rest of the conversation as well. The two men decide to introduce themselves to each other. The narrator introduces himself as "Meryl Hess," a member of the centaur tribe, and asks the two men to explain how they came to be in the research institute. He also asks them to explain why they disguised themselves as humans and snuck into the research facility. The men explain that they are following the orders of the prophet, who has sent them to protect the humans. They thank the men for their help, and the men are excited to introduce the communicator manual to the audience. They also note that dudley, the man in charge of the entry procedure, wants to bring them to the city to familiarize themselves with the city.
