Where I had left off, Partridge, Lyda and the Mothers, are walking down a path of misery, seeming to be hour on end to reach their destination. Then Mother Hestra leads then to a shelter from in which she waves her hand as to someone in the sky. Partridge looks up to see what she was waving her hand at, but he couldn't see anything. She then lead them inside the shelter. There sitting in the darkness of the floor was a giant whole that seemed like it was made by a giant creature that could pop out at any second. The Mothers want them to go down, possibly to their death.
Then Mother Hestra said, "Ladies First"(Baggot 82). She then shakes her head and tells Partridge to go first. And he complies. He gets down on his hands and knees and goes down, while Lyda follows. When they finally get down, Mother Hestra closed the door to the treacherous darkness and everything goes black. Then there is a light at the end of the tunnel. And Mother Hestra said that the tunnel was a subway tunnel before the detonations hit. They then started asking if when they got down there if there were any bodies they should look out for. Mother Hestra then confronted them and told them not to worry, for they had buried them in a sacred way. They wanted to thank them for letting them used the play for in which they had passed for an important reason.
