The sailing ship cut through the wind and waves for a full eight days and seven nights, finally docking at a harborside of one of the Ajia Kingdom's city-states on the morning of the eighth day.
The Hermit Naya descended from the sailing ship first, using his walking stick, watching the Stone Slaves, who were heavy lifters and ship haulers, bustling back and forth along the harbor.
In the distance, the Kagawus Temple stood on high ground. The Hermit Naya knelt down, facing the temple, and kissed the damp ground of the harborside.
Seeing this act, the Priests were deeply moved by the Hermit's devotion.
Naya rose from the ground, looking expressionlessly at the Priests disembarking from the sailing ship.
The High Priest Ora, wanting to please him, led by example by kneeling on the ground, facing the distant Kagawus Temple, recited a prayer, and kissed the ground.
