Synopsis
Vinyr probes the mind of Rienrie and learns the location of the Resistance's headquarters. Seren and Galahad are on their way to the Headquarters when they are warned by the Irishai that they are walking into a trap set by the Hierarchy's troops. In order to prevent the other rebels from being captured and mind probed, Seren, Galahad, Minetti, Chris and Brent seal them in and kill them. One of the rebels shoots and kills Chris.
Meanwhile, Ninivir and Jason make it back into the Siovansin and start towards Seren's chambers. Liana and D'Mer discover that their candy is poisoned.
