Turtle journeys across part of Bosch, reaching the citadel of Nosh'ma, a so-called "Overlord". There, Turtle demands the Cervani child taken from the Sanctuary of Order. At last, Turtle gets the child, and, on her way out, is reunited with Melchizedek. Together, they head back to the Sanctuary … and find that it the journey back is unreasonably short compared to how long it took them to get this far in the first place.
