At first, Sabine was so nervous that she did not fully commit to Meesei's hug. It took a few moments for the familiar scent and warmth to remind her of who Meesei was to her before the book had affected her. From there, Meesei could feel Sabine's arms gradually tightening around her until it almost became hard to breathe.

"We can...start again," Sabine said into Meesei's shoulder with a high pitched voice.

Sabine did her best to support Meesei over her shoulders. She walked her away from the cliff and towards the rest of the pack. "You will have to see. You are still the champion." Sabine glanced at Fendros and hesitated. "We have to decide what to do with the book."
