In this chapter, we learn that the women didn't kill the men because they thought they deserved another chance. They thought that they could train the men to be more like their nature, which is against their nature. They also thought that the men would be less likely to kill the women if they believed that they were no longer a threat to them. The women, however, believe that they have won the war, and they are willing to sacrifice their lives in order to do so. The men don't believe them, and the women think that they've won. They've been hiding for a long time, they say, and now they're ready to fight again. They think that the wolves have joined forces with them and that they can't defeat them. They can only fight them off with the help of the hands they have. The wolves are coming, the women are ready to die, and it's going to be a long, bloody fight. The narrator says that in his shoes, the world is safer, but in his clothes, it looks more dangerous. He compares his own skin to that of his sister's, and he feels that he's the closest thing he has to a daughter. He says that sometimes he kills and feels nothing, and that's why he needs to leave.
