In this chapter, Sabia and Neve track down Mariana, a bandit girl who had deserted from Kira and also apparently leaked information to Dajrab. Once they in Mariana at Lake Sorthyos, Neve gives Sabia a good lesson in information extracting by exploiting the girl's sex drive. Afterwards, they escort the poor girl back to Kira, who apparently has her own way of dealing with fugitives.
