Withal still can't catch a break. Rhulad is in and out, slightly less grip on his sanity each time. Sandalath won't let Withal sleep. The Nachts are still doing the same thing: building a nest, knocking it down.
Sand and Withal spot a boat blown in by a storm; both are kept at bay by some force.
Withal suddenly sees what the Nachts have been trying to tell him. He goes to the Crippled God's tent and tears it apart. The wind suddenly kicks up, waves crashing in. The boat slides up to the island and a figure steps out: Mael.
Withal, Sand, and the Nachts take the boat. Mael goes to directly confront the Crippled God.
