Sai arrived at the post-battle site and looked around in shock. She’d heard the noise through the walls while she had been talking to Lucy but hadn’t bothered going to have a look, as the sounds of screaming and fighting didn’t usually mean something good was happening. Now though she could see a total lack of war, or even of good-natured arguing, which she was sure must be unheard of in the real world as well as Mordor! As she watched the parents began to disappear, since there was no fighting they were no longer anakronisms.

“Goodbye darling! We’ll see you soon.”

She turned as she heard her mother’s voice, and saw both her parents standing behind her. She hugged them quickly just before they disappeared, and then made her way toward the middle of the battlefield. She could see Anakron and A Slan talking, and kept a respectful distance from them. As she waited a small figure appeared next to her in the crowd, and she looked down to see Fléin. He looked tired, and more than a little battle-weary, but he was smiling at the sight before them.

Sai found herself smiling with him. She had now completed all the tasks Anakron had set, and simply had to wait to find out whether she had done well enough to get out of Mordor. She thought that perhaps she should be feeling more anxious than she did right now, but the calm atmosphere that seemed to be almost tangible was keeping such concerns at bay. Eventually Anakron and A Slan finished their quiet conversation, and Sai and Fléin moved forwards, noting the remaining members of the Offending Party approaching in the distance, to find out whether Mordor was soon to be just a memory.
