Maybe Hind Will Take Her? ~ by SaralynArati

The word from both rulers was remarkably similar: we don't want her, or in proper legal terms, Kala Nag is hereby banished from my lands for as long as she may live. Mulan was positively gleeful that the duty of informing the incarcerated woman of her sentence fell upon General Shang and Princess Khittin. "Didn't you say she once came from over the southern mountains? Maybe Hind will want her back... or at least let her in. But still, it might be best not to tell them who she is," she teased.

Subsequently, Kala Nag was confined in the prison of the garrison manning the Great Wall at that point, and dispatches were sent via swift couriers to both the Emperor of China and the Mongol Khan. It took a few weeks to receive a response, by which time Mulan was not only completely well again, but beginning to get restless for something purposeful to do.

"How am I supposed to deal with a hysterical murderess?" General Shang grumbled. Mimicking his earlier smirk, Khittin answered, "Kala Nag routinely slapped women whom she accused of hysteria. It always seemed cruel to me, but if that's the accepted treatment..." Seeing the Mongol princess advancing on her, weapon still in hand, her stepmother quelled herself with a small hiccup.

Grinning wolfishly, he delivered his message, "Mulan requests that if you plan on torturing Kala Nag to death, you gag her first; she has a headache and noise disturbs her." Of course, Fa Mulan and everyone else in the camp could tell the Mongol woman was having a colossal temper tantrum from her voice, but this enraged the powerless witch even further and she resumed stamping and shrieking. "I think she's hysterical," Khittin observed.
