Have you ever tried to listen to two conversations at once and missed something important?  That's what is happening here.  Taddin explains his situation to Nogi who is at first angry but later understands all is not lost.  Arlina explains her reaction to the Nymph's actions and she in return explains her situation.

This page took a long time to draw and color.  Trying to tell two stories at once with 3-4 characters per panel is a lot of work.  I hope you appreciate all the time and effort I put into each page.
