The High Princess, who spent ten years fighting the Kharians, learns Jenny in Regallo has been forced into concubinage and orders Tahlia to ready troops and return immediately. As soldiers hurry back, people in Regallo seize Jenny, insist "your father promised you to me," and tell her her mother is dead. Jenny resists, cries "Mother!" and begs not to be hurt while hands restrain her. The episode ends with the High Princess arriving and confronting Jenny’s battered condition, asking, "What have you gone through in the past decade?" — Jenny’s fate remains unresolved.
