The group missive decides that the burial is going to be in a few hours, now that Apoc and Yuwen have done some reconnaissance to make sure it's safe on Skaia. You're about to set off now, but while you were waiting you set Kuviu loose on the fungus quest. You were busy considering the Choice Kore gave you.
Kore implied that either she could tell you the location of the Vessels, or you could somehow be responsible for making the map. At least, you think that's what she was implying. You imagined the Scribe of the True Word would put down truths that were plain but meaningful. The truth you've been given couldn't be less plain, and you're not sure it means anything, which makes you suspect that thing wasn't really an angel. But for whatever it's worth, you told her you'd write the book yourself.
Sometime after the burial, you suppose. And that's going to take long enough, even with all four of you--
Hang on.
