Herland

Van, Jeff, and Terry drop to the ground and travel along a river until sunrise, when they stop to eat and gather nuts. They hide in a crevice on a high bank and sleep. For days, they travel by night in this manner. The men arrive at the biplane, which has been sewn into a large canvas bag. Ellador, Celis, and Alima are watching them, and Jeff suggests asking them for help. The men use the women’s language to explain their story; Terry feigns hunger, and the women toss them food parcels. After the men eat, the women encourage the men to play a game of knocking a nut off a tripod of balanced sticks. The men enjoy the game but want to leave, so they ask for knives to release the plane. Celis, Ellador, and Alima show their knives but stay out of reach. Terry suggests they grab the women and steal their knives. The women run away, and when the men fail to catch up, they return to the plane.

Around 100 Herlanders are waiting for them, and Van, Jeff, and Terry submit and return with them.
