"But our list of potential allies is shorter, because now we don't know who we can trust. That's one thing. And also, this traitor involved herself in your life once before; she may do it again for reasons of her own. That's another thing," the Candeliana Witch elaborated. "But as for what we'll do, no, our plans remain essentially unchanged. We'll just be extra careful." "As if we wouldn't have been anyway," Hawkeye went so far as to chuckle. "Exactly. Get some rest. I'll keep watch."

Once safely aboard the east-bound train, Hawkeye began, diffidently, "Miss Brin, knowing that there's a traitor among the Witches is certainly a good thing, as having information is better than being without it, but what does that mean for us? We cannot abandon our quest to try to identify her... and as long as she doesn't know that we're aware of her actions, will she feel threatened enough by us to interfere with our journey? In short, has anything truly changed?" Brin smiled. "Not truly."

Well, silently enough, since her opponent was nearly deaf; this was only Brin's first lesson in the skill. Next, the fugitives did, indeed, cross into the human realm and catch a conveniently timed train heading, even more fortuitously still, directly for Moscow. Then the most ingenious part of the plan executed itself; a second, time-delayed flash/bang was set off after those ten minutes, causing the Union of Vengeance Witch to believe they'd been the same event, not noticing the lapsed time.

What had actually happened was a bit more complex. Brin's flash/bang potion had also released an anesthetic gas with a strong amnesiac component, which Jaenell was breathing in as fast as she could chant. It was designed to last for about 10 minutes. During that time, Brin and Hawkeye would make their exit. Brin did indeed almost go down the rough path carved by the whirlwind, but she was wordlessly stopped by the Oakenling, who showed her instead how to melt back silently into the trees.
