Then, providing themselves with enough time to scatter, as none of them were ever there, they give the all clear to Smoke Cat. She is happy to explain the magical terms that must be used to Estel's mother. Everyone is curious about Silver Fox's timely arrival, but they are willing to wait until everyone gets home to hear the story at the same time. In the meanwhile, law officers come, and speak to Shooting Star's mother. The "faithful swain" will be arrested for that, if for nothing else.

"We'll say that she's been scrying for her daughter's literary stalker, and was finally successful tonight," continues Silver Fox. "That's good; we don't have to mention the Sword of Justice at all, just let the authorities come to their own conclusions," says Shooting Star. "I don't know if, as hard as I hit him, he'll be able to identify himself... certainly not right away, I would think," Summer Wind contributes, "which will add to the general confusion."

"Well, what do we do with him now?" Silver Fox inquires. "We had planned to dress him as the Sword of Justice and turn him in to the authorities," says his sister. "I don't see any reason why we can't do that still," concludes Shooting Star. "It's a little ignominious, but I'll live," says Silver Fox, his eyes twinkling. "Well, then, let's get it done before it starts to rain again," suggests Estel practically. "Who turns him in?" asks Summer Wind. "How about my magical mother-in-law?"

Summer Wind conjures light, and the trio look down at the face of the rider in black. "Who is that?" asks Silver Fox. "I'm not sure, but I think it's the man who assigns rooms in the Imperial Complex, and supervises parties. I have no idea what his name is," replies Shooting Star. "I thanked him for arranging for me to have a suite with a pool." "I remember him, now," says Summer Wind. "He was extremely unpleasant to my husband for the brief time that we didn't live in the Silver Mansion."

Waving his toxic sword around wildly, trying to kill both perceived Silver Foxes at once, the "faithful swain" is more dangerous than before. "Enough!" says Summer Wind, and transferring a stout club through the portal, swings with all her might at the letter writer. His head does not crack open, but only because her footing is slippery. In a few more instants, all the guards are either on the ground themselves, or running away, being sporadically waylaid by angry peasants with tree limbs.
