Shae visits Doru while he is under house arrest, and he tells her that his plan was to peacefully merge No Peak with Mountain as a way of preventing Ayt Mada from inevitably merging them violently. When asked about his secret payments from Mountain, Doru assures Shae that the money always made its way back into No Peak and was used to help the clan. Doru claims that he’d hoped to make a more open plea to Lan, but never had the opportunity because of Hilo’s antagonizing interference. Doru expects to be executed, so he is surprised when Shae tells him that if he remains jadeless, he can live out his days as Kaul Sen’s companion in his old age.
At the Twice Lucky, two No Peak Fingers, one of whom is Caun, are posted as protection from any possible Mountain attacks. They receive a call that Mountain is coming, so Mr. Une clears the restaurant of customers and hides with his staff in the back.
After the Fingers and their reinforcements fall to Gont Asch and his men, Gont Asch offers Mr. Une the opportunity to pay tribute to the Mountain.
