In this chapter, we learn that Elmire is planning to ask Elmire for help in getting back to her clan in lagonia. Elmire wants to know how to do it, so she invites Elmire to join her in the fight, but Elmire refuses, saying that she'll have to wait until Elmire returns from her trip to the Galapagos. She asks Elmire if he'd like to play along with her plan, and Elmire agrees. She tells Elmire that he's done a good job catching him, and she's glad that it's over. She's also glad that he doesn't have to worry about the library, because the locusts will be able to deal with them. She also tells him that he can use the information he has gained from the fight to form an alliance with Elmire's clan, and that they'll help him out in the future. He's not going to give up this information easily, though, because he has a lot of information on how to get into lagonia, and he has an inside line of communication with the clan. He wants to use this information to help Elmire get back to his clan.
