This chapter begins with a description of the red thread that human beings have on their fingers. It's a symbol of fate, and it's also a sign that humans are fated to be human. The red thread on a human's fingers means that they're safe, and that they won't die or disappear anytime soon. This doesn't sound like a good idea, but then again, the power of the gods is equal to that of a messenger from god. If a messenger can save someone, then that person can be saved. But if the messenger can't save the person, then the messenger's mission has been accomplished, and the messenger will be in breach of contract. This means that the messenger hasn't met the person who killed Princess eva. The messenger is glad that he's come to this place, and he wants to make sure that princess eva lives a happy life. He wants her to forget about her dark past when she's surrounded by her friends. He's glad that she came to the place, too, because he can forget about his past when he is surrounded by his friends. This is a good thing, because otherwise he wouldn't be able to forget his past. He asks the messenger if he can continue his mission to save the life of nidhogg, and if so, the messenger agrees.
