The fox just stares at her. "All right, it's a stretch, but the whole point in the cabal was supposed to be to find a suitable inheritor for Jade Black Rose's Evening Gate. Could we cause her to think she is a long lost heir or that she would be chosen as a reward for my death?" asks Summer Wind. "I don't like it," Kanu says, "too many "ifs" and "maybes"; something will go wrong." Really, he is more disturbed by the false dead Butterfly, and now hearing the real one speak of her own death.

"We will have to get back inside somehow and rescue them. I suspect that both Blue Turtle and Moon Shadow will be surrounded by traps, and kept apart," muses Summer Wind. Silver Fox and Kanu nod their assent. "Furthermore, we need a distraction..." Kanu looks over at Parakeet making daisy chains. Silver Fox surreptitiously shifts back long enough to say, "But how do we convince her that betraying me advances her fantasies?" "My brother, it is not your soul, but a princesshood she craves."

Jade Moon Shadow is not technically threatened or abused by the Queen, but every word is calculated to bring out pangs of guilt and inadequacy in her. She is not told that the portions of what was believed to be the girl were all inanimate objects, except the hornets; so far as she knows, Summer Wind is truly dead. She is shocked into tears, and then discovers than incoherency works for her. No one expects a poor-relation of the Queen, low in magic, to have much intelligence or fortitude.

The companions do not have long to wait; even as they are stealthily approaching the Dawn Gate, Blue Turtle Dreaming is being shown his "daughter's" "corpse": a sewing manequin torso, a slightly reconfigured sawhorse for legs, grass sickle arms, and a nest of angry hornets for a head. Many of those who tried unsuccessfully to wake the girl, both of the guard and the cabal, have very nasty weals from multiple stings. Blue Turtle is commanded to use his own magic to find Butterfly instantly.

Eventually they find Butterfly up a tree in a small copse nearby, no part of her visible except the shine of her eyes and the gloss of her hair. It is an excellent disguise spell that relies less on the spell than on acutally hiding. Summer Wind is delighted to see her brother and Kanu, and perhaps even Parakeet, but the length of time Blue Turtle has been gone is beginning to seem ominous to her. Instinctively, Silver Fox assumes his animal form, and Kanu frets with one weapon after another.
