So. He'd gotten caught up in the journey, paying a bit too much attention to the depictions of ceremonial orders on the ancient way stations and a bit too little to the calendar... and now, although he had finally reached the site of the temple, he also found himself far, far away from any human settlement and well into an unusually intense heat cycle.
It would normally have taken him less than a day to reach the nearest city, but he wouldn't be able to travel quickly like this... and his mind was so addled with need that he could barely concentrate to plan a route. If anything happened, he'd be a sitting duck...
There had to be other options, but when he tried to puzzle through them, his thoughts blurred and dissolved. Perhaps he had no choice but to wait it out... here, alone. (And yet the idea of going another moment without relief made him want to cry.)
