Willian was fascinated with the complexity of the Manzanit Residence in both form and function. It only took him two days of getting completely lost for him to start understanding the layout of the sprawling, multi-floored building. After watching Elder Wilken handle several dignitaries, he was beginning to understand what a monumental job he kept track of almost effortlessly. He hoped to be as good when he finally became Elder in his own district. No longer did he think badly of Rasa since he knew she had a tough job ahead of her when she finally got to be in charge of the district.

Rasa kept him pretty busy by grilling him on rules and regulations standard for any Elder. He was glad he had paid attention in the Successor’s classes. She seemed to be pleased with the amount of knowledge he had retained since the last session had been held. Rasa even smiled at him before she had to return to her own duties.

When she was unable to meet with him, he had been instructed by her to access a special program on his patil. At first glance, the program appeared to be a basic educational course until you entered a secret code and then everything became quite different. The names of the continents, cities, and bodies of water were all different than what he knew them to be.

If he were going to be traveling from his current location, known there as New York, then he should probably have some intimate knowledge of where he would be going. He wondered how long it would take to get to southern Florida.

The thought of transportation worried him a little bit since it would require a lot of time and work on his part. The people of Tuala had it so much easier with teleportation since it was almost instantaneous. He looked up transportation methods and scowled at the options as they all seemed so inefficient. The airplane looked to be the best alternative, even if it were going to require him to acquire more money.

Money: a major issue he was going to have to figure out. Money and living arrangements were on the top of his list he had to admit to himself, the more he learned, the less certain he was of succeeding in his task. He could not believe how naïve he had been when he had tried to go see Jena before. He was so thankful he
