question:  Why are the Kar-Rah shouting "Kaalleee tik tik tik!"?
context: A scream of brakes, the splash into icy waters, a long descent into alkaline depths ... Movement was slower now, as he began to sink, trapped inside his wrecked car. The edges of that almost bottomless pool were caked with a rim of white—for the water, on which dead birds so often floated, was surcharged with alkali. The ripples that had ruffled the surface waters in the Pit, quieted again to glassy smoothness. "Kaalleee! Tik!... Kaalleee!..." "Kaalleee!... Tik, tik, tik!..." Then other vocal organs took up that trilling wail, and those short, sharp chuckles of eagerness. Lacking qualities identifiable as human, the disturbance was still like the babble of a group of workmen who have discovered something remarkable. The icy breeze tore tiny puffs of dust from grotesque, angling drifts of soil, nearly waterless for eons. "Kaalleee!... Tik, tik, tik!..." Loy Chuk had flown his geological expedition out from the far lowlands to the east, out from the city of Kar-Rah. Loy Chuk and his fellow workers were gathered, tense and gleeful, around the things their digging had exposed to the daylight. The dry mud that had encased it like an airtight coffin, had by now been chipped away by the tiny investigators; but soiled clothing still clung to it, after perhaps a million years. Not the star-conquering demi-gods, but the ancestral stock that had built the first machines on Earth, and in the early Twenty-first Century, the first interplanetary rockets. At last Loy Chuk gave a soft, chirping signal. The chant of triumph ended, while instruments flicked in his tiny hands. In twittering, chattering sounds, he communicated his further knowledge to his henchmen. "Tik, tik, tik!..." Flashing flame, the latter arose, bearing the entire hundred members of the expedition.
