The Drover's Crossing

A scratched clay tile found in the Drover's Wreck — a route-record from the caravan's lead drover, half practical instruction and half prayer to something that did not answer.

Notes the Reshi crossing-lore: leave at third moonrise, never take the straight line from one rib to the next (it crosses a brine-sink), and the well in the notch with the three-scratch mark runs sweet. The final line is different from the rest: 'the pan looked like water all afternoon. We went toward it anyway. This is the last of the tally.'
