Ky and Cassia introduce each other to Eli and Indie. They reenter the Carving and build a fire. Ky confirms what Indie said about the blue tablets (that they are poison), and Cassia accepts the truth. Cassia’s condition has drastically improved since she first took the tablets. Indie returns Xander’s notes that Cassia dropped earlier in her ill state. As they fall asleep, Cassia tells Ky the story of the Pilot—“like the one you told me about Sisyphus”—and Ky confirms that he’s heard of the Rising (202). Cassia mourns the loss of Ky’s compass, and Ky comforts her by telling her about the silk he left on the Hill.
Finally reunited, Cassia and Ky kiss and tell each other everything that’s happened during their time apart: Ky tells Cassia about Vick and Laney, and Cassia tells Ky about the boy with burned hands, Indie’s Pilot story, and the “blue-marked Anomalies” who might “have been part of the Rising” (205). Ky and Eli tell the girls about the tracking disks in their coats. Cassia has Ky cut hers out, while Indie chooses to keep hers intact.
