"She might require a reminder of what the plant looked like, but I believe she is canny enough to avoid most predators." Syura thinks for a moment. "I would need the collaboration of everyone who has a magical portal to maintain the illusion that I have in mind. Can you arrange this, my son?" Indeed, Kanu does, with full Academy sanction. Smoke Cat Watching especially relishes the witch-woman's idea, and the two look forward to becoming friends... perhaps, in time, yet more closely related.

Several days go by while Syura studies Parakeet's character and capabilities. Oddly enough, the witch-woman is not discouraged. "She is entirely self-serving, I think," Kanu's mother says of the former courtesan. "She would be happiest in a gilded cage." "I thought at first she might do as a flower collector for Master Sun Son of the Central Kingdom, but that isn't glamorous enough," says Kanu. "However, it would keep her coming back to mages who could refresh the mute charm," he muses.

"Good," replies his mother. "Too much patience can be unwise," and she grins back. "We will speak more of this special girl, later, however. The problem at hand is what to do with the one you have now." Kanu explains to Syura the magic door invention, and why, now that Parakeet knows about it again, she cannot just be left to her own devices. "That is awkward," agrees the witch-woman. "Could you make your mute spell specific to that topic?" "I think so, but it would need renewal often."

"First I must test this dilemma to see what she might be good for," and the mother ignores the son's deep blush, "and maybe even dance on the matter." Something in Kanu's eyes sparks, and Syura smiles. "She dances, does she, that other, right girl? I like her already." To this, Kanu will only grin and say that although she moves quite well, she is still too young in many ways. "Nonetheless you will wait patiently for her?" asks the witch-woman. "Yes... well perhaps not entirely patiently."

"You have brought me the wrong girl. This one weighs heavy on your heart, whereas the other makes your heart light," continues the witch-woman. "Ma Ayah, my mother, I am duty bound as a guardsman to find this one, this Parakeet, a place to live where she cannot, or will not, cause trouble. And she excels at causing trouble," replies Kanu wearily. "So you have come to me for wisdom? It is not the worst idea you have ever had," she says, and smooths his hair-tail. "I will consider this."
