Kiska awakens in the front room of Seal's home, its door still smashed from its hinges. Her attempt to stand is painful but she manages to limp to the table. Seal says he had to mend her sprained knees, bruised kidney, and torn muscles, but with some rest she will mend. Her clothes, however, were a total loss and had to be burned. She demands to know what happened to the men who were with her. Seal replies that both will live, although the Seti required much skilled healing. He insists she has something to eat before telling her where they are. Having eaten, Kiska guesses that the men await her at the wharf and Seal admits she is right, giving her credit for being so astute.
