After meeting the Ghostbloods to deliver the information found in Amaram's mansion, Shallan hid inside a Lightwoven boulder, to avoid being followed. Pattern approached the hired coach driver, who had been tasked to wait for the young woman's return, and, imitating Shallan's voice, instructed him to return her to the warcamps. After several hours the illusion disintegrated and the pair headed back to the warcamps. To pass the time, Pattern helped Shallan practice her accents, repeating her voice back to her, so she could gauge her progress. On the path back, they found the charred remains of Shallan's hired coach, as well as the corpses of the coachman and his parshmen. Shallan had been right to be cautious, and her decision to hide and wait had saved her life.{{book ref|sa2|54}}
