While the boy continues on, and takes his place among the other slumbering warriors, Kanu is able to disengage from him through Summer Wind, and then to fully awaken his wife. The two of them have seen all they need to, except for who or what is organizing this, and they feel that they have pressed their luck enough for one night. Stealthily they slip back into the bushes and away, so that the perpetrator will not know that the nocturnal meeting place has been discovered by conscious adults.

In a sharply dropping valley, almost a ravine, and well camouflaged from the casual eye lies the... training center. Here boys are practicing with wooden swords and dull spears, girls are shooting targets with arrows, and a few of each seem to be working very clumsy and ineffective enchantments, which would probably be a lot deadlier were the magic-workers not asleep. Some are running, dodging, jumping or climbing over logs, ducking under a roof of shields. No one is bothering with first aid.

The boy who was experimentally tied to his bed volunteers, and that night, although Syura and Taronyu her husband are very anxious, Summer Wind and Kanu establish their links and wait for the sleeping teen to stir. Before too long, the boy arises from his bed and walks off into the darkness, with the young mage following him, and her husband following her. They proceed through a thick grove of trees and downstream, but not across, a small river. Finally, however, the three of them arrive.

Kanu is, to put it mildly, not sanguine about this plan, and demands to be in on the mind link as well. If Summer Wind is linked to the affected teen, then he will go into a trance-like state in order to be linked to his wife. Being one step removed from the actual sleeper, he will be more alert, although still not entirely awake. But he feels that she needs someone to guard her back and protect her, especially since the young mage is so highly noticeable as an intruder due to her pale skin.

Therefore, although Syura has danced on the matter herself and gotten nowhere, Summer Wind seeks out her spirit animals. What they hint at is a technique she read about in school, but has never had occasion to try: the mind link. With their permission, she could meditate as the boy or girl fell asleep, and, with the spells in place, be aware of their dreaming impulses without exactly being conscious. In this way, she hopes not to trigger the "I'm being followed" response and reach the goal.
