Talking nonsense, part 1

In the middle of Part 2 of Rome's Revolution, Rei has been taken to the Nayer's house for what he thought was orientation but in reality was for questioning. Even though he told the absolute honest truth, no matter what he said, the people there found his story increasing crazy until they finally had enough.

     “I think I might agree. You do not look so fearsome. What are you doing here?” the Nayer asked.
     “I was dropped here by the Vuduri.”
     “Why?” the Nayer demanded to know.
     Rei shrugged. “I guess they had no use for me,” he said.
     “It is not like them to just let people go. Why do you think that is?”
     “Because my wife told them to, I am guessing,” Rei offered.
     “Who is your wife?”
     “Her name is Rome. She is the daughter of Fridone.”
     “Fridone? He does not have a daughter. At least he never mentioned anything about one,” the Nayer said.
     “Well, I was with him not too long ago. We were at your enclave to the north. That is where my people are. Rome and I flew a ship to the Vuduri so she could get medical attention.”
     “You flew a ship from our base to the Vuduri?” the Nayer said, shocked. “That is not possible. It is against the rules. If you flew a ship there, they would kill you. Unless you are part of the Overmind as well.”
     “I am not,” Rei said. “I am mandasurte like you.”
     “Then they would have killed you. What you are saying makes no sense.”
     “It does not make any sense to me either,” Rei said. “But when we got there, they decided to help us. My wife was in pain. They said the only way to save her was to reconnect her to the Overmind. So they did. Then they tossed me out.”
     “Your wife was reconnected to the Overmind?” the Nayer gasped. The other men murmured to themselves. “Then all is lost. She will tell them where the enclave is.”
     “No, she will not,” Rei said.
     “How do you know this?” the Nayer asked belligerently.
     “Because she said so,” Rei answered back.
     “You do not know the Overmind,” the Nayer said.
     “You do not know my wife,” Rei quickly retorted. “And besides, she does not know exactly where it is. She was barely conscious when we left there.”
     “So what is your plan now?” the Nayer asked him.
     “I do not have a plan. I guess I will go back north, to the enclave. My group is there. The ones that came with the Ark. I have to tell them what happened. They need to know.”
     The group stared at Rei but said nothing. The Nayer nodded to two men off to Rei’s right and they came over to stand in front of him. The Nayer, apparently the only man in the room who would even speak to Rei, left the room along with several others. Rei could hear them arguing in the other room but he could not hear what they were saying. At last, they returned.
     “You cannot go there,” the Nayer said. “You must remain here.”

Tomorrow, Rei gets thrown in jail for being a crazy person.
