‘Not all of us are naughty,’ said another Noot nearby who had come out of hiding. ‘There are some of us here with special markings that you need to be aware of.’

‘Why? We’re just visiting.’

‘You are in a forbidden valley that is ruled by an underground force. If it rises, there is no escape. You have seen how flat the land is. There is nowhere to hide.’

‘Who are you?’

‘A not-naughty Noot. Beware of the Noots with two black dots above their back upters. They have special powers most of us don’t. It’s rumoured that an underground force has scarred them into service for being really naughty. To redeem themselves, any new life form in the valley must be caught and be made into a building block to climb over. Then they get four dots and belong to the ruling Nooters, which is a special class of angry Noots. They are very dangerous.’

‘Why should we believe you?’

‘Look at my shown side and you will understand.’

There on the Noot’s shown side were four dots. Davidia fell over in surprise.

‘This messing up of my clothes is getting to me.’

‘I warn you, the valley is riddled with fear. That is one reason why we keep our unshown sides to the ground and continuously eat. It is impossible to know which Noots are ready to earn their dots.’

‘But, if you already have four dots, you must be an angry Nooter.’

‘They aren’t real, but are excellent camouflage, providing I don’t have to act as a four dotter. Note that I have three black and one empty one. That’s how you will know me when we meet again.’

‘Is there a place we can eat? I’m starving.’

The Noot just shook its rectangle. There was nowhere.
