Chapter 7
HP woke up one day not long after letting her girl down. She had another child, naming this one Gerber. He had red hair, and was starting to get fidgety. He was crying, so HP got up to get him something. She noticed her steps were slowed as she tried to get to Gerber, and that Hav seemed faster than usual. Maybe it was her mind playing tricks on her, but halidog saw it too. He consulted the Guiding Hand about it.
"Oh Guiding Hand, why is my wife slower?"
"As one gets older, one gets slower. As one gets slower, one gets wiser. As one gets wiser, one should be more often listened to."
"But-but what does that mean?"
"You are the chief, you must figure that out."
"Please!"
It was too late to ask the Guiding hand; he had already left. Halidog had to figure it out on his own, much to his despair. He told HP what the Guiding Hand had said.
"Maybe he means that you need me to help make decisions?"
"Actually... I think that might be it!" Thanks!" Hali said, kissing HP on the cheek before making an announcement.
"I have something to tell you all," halidog said. "I am making a council of advisers! The first member shall be my wife, HP!"
"He only did that because she's his wife," laurence, who had a baby named Jazzo, muttered under her breath.
"Anyone aged 50 or older will be accepted."
