When Miuko reappears, a boy and his fiancée are cowering in fear as a girl by the name of Senara is threatening them with a knife. Senara is confronting the boy, who was meant to marry her, who ruined her by sleeping with her, but decided to marry the other girl. She tells Miuko to kill him, but Miuko cannot bring herself to do it. Hawi and his fiancée run away, leaving Senara devastated. Miuko rings Naisholao’s bell and calls her emissary. A talking white weasel appears, and Miuko requests Senara’s help and convinces her to follow her on her journey because if she remains in her village, she will be ostracized. They climb on the weasel and take off.
They travel for a whole day and night, and Nogadishao emerges from Miuko’s pocket. Miuko almost slips from the weasel’s back, but Senara saves her and asks after Miuko’s story. Miuko realizes that she has lived dreams by being almost a demon and that there is value to her journey. The weasel drops down and leaves them on an uninhabited island. The water becomes turbulent and something rises from the water.
