Roland has appeared next to Susan after introducing themselves. Roland states his business in Hambry and they walk for a time with Roland hearing of Pat Delgado's death as well as seeing for the first time Citgo and hearing the Thinny that dwells in Eyebolt Canyon. Susan departs asking Roland when he next sees her to act as though it is for the first time. We then jump to John Farson who has destroyed the capital of Cressia, Indrie. Marten appears through a doorway and discusses with Farson the shipments of oil from Citgo and other matters.
