Salvaging what’s left of their belongings and friendships, the party digs through the ashes of the fire at the outpost and comes clean about their pasts.
As the fire rages at the outpost, Rou and Trix take a moment to catch Eight up with what they’ve missed the last week or so. It quickly becomes apparent that, aside from a memory gap, Eight now also is having trouble functioning despite their assurance that they feel fine. Trix comes clean about their history with the Emperor, the group’s most recent encounter with The Dragon, and what they did to try and bring Eight back.
When they rejoin the group, it’s obvious to Indy & Co that Eight is no longer Amara, which prompts Rou and Trix to come clean about what they know regarding their friend’s situation. Sierra is less than pleased and is adamant that they can’t help the trio now, especially with their equipment and food stores gone. Dassana proposes that perhaps they can keep in touch and regroup when the party is ready to go rescue the children, as they still wish to help with that.
Once the fire dies down, the group sifts through the ash and rubble hoping to find some of their equipment. They’re able to reclaim some of their goods, but their cash and food stores are lost. When they’re ready to part ways, Trix notices Faerlin watching them. They ask them to tag along and, as is their duty, Faerlin agrees.
