==The Hitangan revere the God Worm==

The Hitangan attempt to prove to the suzumou that they respect the Sand Worms they revere. They are careful not to bring any carapaces from the sand worms on their mission of diplomacy.

The Ancients deem it wise not to have everything in this continent against them. It seems wisdom has tempered their fury

The envoys who set off to make peace with the suzumou never returned. The Ancients fear they were killed. Knowing that the suzumou worship the sand worms, the Ancients push to remove all traces of the worms carapaces from their village. They hope they are not too late to prevent disaster.

When Zu-Nul scouts managed to reach the old host's husk, and found that parts of it were missing. Evidence and tracks suggest Gorrirog interference! The scouts return with this information successfully, and relayed it to the sisters. In return, the sisters inform Zhen'qual. Zhen'qual replies: "It is as I suspected... the brutes do dare to defile us. Defiling us makes them infidels. You know what to do with infidels."

For a long time the hitangan have tried to contact the Zu'Nul. They have avoided the worms, discontinued using carapaces, trying desperately to form some connection with the followers of the godworm. A party is sent out with offerings of well-cooked spiced meat, Obsidian jewelry, and small statuettes of the sand worms.

The Zu-nul have intentionally avoided contact with the Hitangan, for multiple reasons, such as fear, mistrust and the suspicion that the gorrirogs had defiled their sacred former home.

The emissary party is spotted long before they manage to reach the hidden place where the Hazuvaat rests. As they continue to approach, the Zu-nul decide to send a group of hunters and warriors to intercept them, so that they can't find their god. They fear that the gorrirogs might attempt to harm Zhen'qual. 

Upon reaching the emissaries, the suzumou attempt to intimidate them to back off. Of course, seeing that the suzumou are about tall enough that their heads reach the hips of the gorrirogs, this intimidation works as well as one would expect. They are yet to notice the gifts the emissaries bear.

The Hitangan fail to reach them with their language. Since they believe themselves to be safe, they drop their weapons and armour, and attempt to present the gifts to them. They gesture using their sign language slowly and carefully. They kneel to the ground and present the offerings to the Zu'Nul

The Hitangan desperately want to prove to the Zu'nul that they have learned to respect their God. though probably not understood by the suzumou, the Hitangan gesture that they quit using carapaces for the sake of peace.

The gifts are investigated with reserved curiosity. The small statuettes especially catches the interest of the suzumou. Soon enough, they are all fixated on them, studying them intensely.

The suzumou have no concept of art, sculptures or music, and seeing these small rendition of their god is almost mind blowing to them. They almost ignore the other gifts, as they focus on the statues.

After a while, one of them starts to ferry one statuette back to the Hazuvaat, for the rest of the tribe to see. The rest of the suzumou start chirping and flashing varied bioluminescent patterns on their wings. This communication is of course not understood by the tall emissaries.

The suzumou begin to investigate the rest of the gifts.

The jewelry is much less appreciated by the suzumou than the statues were, to them, these objects only seem like touched up stones. The meat however, is liked by the scouts. The taste is new to them, and they almost eat it all on the spot.

The suzumou gesture with hands, towards the mountains. They attempt to convey that the emissaries should now leave. The suzumou are now more curious about these strange tall creatures, than they are afraid of them.

As the suzumou who ferried the statuette back to his tribe returns, he brings slices of dried meat to the gorrirogs along with a carved tooth of the wormgod. The suzmou place their gifts to the ground, pick up what the Hitangan brought to them, and leave.

The Hitangan taste the meat that the Zu'Nul offered them. they take the carved tooth. Perhaps they will bring it back with them next time they try, they decide.

Before the Hitangan leave, they leave one of their spears for the Zu'Nul. They then take off. Not the most spectacular success but the ice is broken.

As the Hitangan return to camp, Lembut is informed that the Statues were a success. They suggest building a better one.

The gifts of the Hitangan become quite popular, especially the small statues of the godworm. The suzumou begin to place these statues inside the storage chambers, as guardians. They also place them in other places, such as atop of the rock formation which surrounds the Hazuvaat.

The Hitangan create a fairly large Statue by the oasis. It depicts the gigantic god worm, and several gorrirogs bowing before it. It's not the most impressive statue, but the Hitangan learn a few valuable techniques about using tools to shape rocks. It is carried out to the end of the oasis closest to the Zu'nul by a Hitangan subordinate designated to be the "emissary of the worm". he sets it down, and blows his worm horn into the air for the Suzumou and worms to hear. HE then quickly flees the area. Worm horns are meant to draw worms after all!

After a few weeks, a strange noise is heard from the oasis. The scouts sent to investigate it, along with a juvenile sandworm discover the statue made by the Hitangan tribe. The suzumou are awestruck by the sculpture. The young worm can get the general idea of what is standing in front of it, through its echolocation abilities.

The scouts inform the rest of the tribe about the sculpture. Many other also visit it, and share the memories of it with Zhen'qual. The Zu-nul begin to warm up to their bulky neighbors and even the godworm starts to consider other options than eventually destroying the defiling infidels.
