Draid walked over and sat down next to me. He looked at me, knowing what I was thinking about. ''What about the computer?'' Draid asked. ''What about it?'' I asked. ''What if that guy gets his hands on it? What happens?'' Draid asked again. ''Not sure, Barbell said if he gets it then the World is doomed, or something like that.'' I answered, trying to keep my cool. Draid sighed, looking at me. He seemed to know what I was feeling or atleast holding in my chest. ''I understand how you feel. Being alone to take care of such a important Computer. With such an important Task.'' Draid said. ''Its natural in life. People give you things they think you can handle, but that turns out to be a false prediction. Then it turns into worries, Then into fear.'' Draid calmly said. ''Fear of losing. Fear of being wrong. Fear of... Losing the trust you gained.'' Draid added. I was astonished of how good he can read people. No wonder they looked up to him! ''Draid... How do you know all of this?'' I asked. Draid calmly turned his body to me, ''I was once you, you know that? I was once given a Task I didn't know I could handle or not.'' Draid then paused, looking over at his people. They were celebrating my ''Holy Vision'', cheering and eating. ''I thought I couldn't handle keeping them safe...'' Draid mumbled. ''I thought, for a while, I wasn't the best to be a Leader. Perhaps... A Terrible Leader!'' Draid then chuckled, looking back.
''But after the storm, after the rain? It was worth it all in the end.'' Draid said, directing my eyes to a woman holding a new-born baby. ''There well-fed, There well protected. There home.'' Draid said, smiling. ''And generations after, so will the next...'' He added. I began to smile, knowing he had everything under control. ''Thank you, Draid.'' I said. ''Anytime, Garin.'' Draid nodded, standing up. ''Say, How about we return you home, yes?'' He asked, holding his hand out. ''Of course.'' I smirked, grabbing his hand. He helped me up, leading me out of his 'Home'.
