In this chapter, we learn that Selia's father, Captain Hyacinth, is still alive, and that he has come to see Selia in order to tell her that she is welcome in his home. Selia asks him if he has ever seen a woman with an "adolla link" , and he replies that he had seen one, but that it was only after a big fire two years ago that he realized that he was not a hero. He had saved many lives in his time, but the fire had made him realize that he did not have the power to save people. He asks Selia if she would like to meet the "angel," and she says that she would. She tells him that she wants to burn him more and more, because she wishes to know if he had ever seen an "Adolla link," and he responds by saying that he only felt a connection to the "Angel," but that he is merely human, too. She says that if he is upset that he kicked his butt earlier, he can kill him.
