Brekke is reluctant to attend, but doesn't feel she can decline without causing insult. She is there for the first day, and participates where invited to do so, but she stays to the perimeter as much as possible. When evening arrives, she thanks Nadeen for the invitation and bids her farewell, asking her to pass along the farewell to the Baron. Then she retreats to the relative security of home.

Sylvi, by contrast, throws herself into the SilverWolf Pennons with abandon, recounting the Great Jello Shot Spring Working with Madern and basking in the praise of their combined achievement. Why yes, she really should give classes in Spring work, but perhaps waiting until Spring itself returns might be best. She checks in on Dagmar frequently, often from a distance, to make sure she's not throwing away her shot. And yes, she and Sydney spend a good deal of time on the dance floor in close consultation. Later, Bluebell's prank threatens to bring on a full diva tantrum, but it's likely Sydney's suggestion that purple-tinted kisses might be quite the prize...and they get to be the first recipient for their cleverness. Yes, Sylvi's having a wonderful time, and it's tempting to stay for what promises to be a thrilling hunt where she can show off her skills, but she has Goldfinch to care for. She returns to her hold inspired to a properly Samhain mood.
