Synopsis
Jaka and Rick are reunited in Mrs. Thatcher's office. There Mrs. Thatcher tells Rick that Jaka had used an exotic plant to cause a miscarriage. Rick hits Jaka, and then is taken home to his mother (but not before having his left thumb broken for hitting a woman.) Jaka is turned over to Palnan authorities. Cerebus returns to find Pud's tavern burned to the ground.
Young Jaka misunderstands Lord Julius' intentions, thinking he was mocking her. She runs away, leaving Palnu on a merchant ship to Iest.

Annotations
- p 2: young Jaka leaves on the ship "Merchant of Iest" that is docked at the Bay of Sunshee.
- p 6: Mrs Thatcher mentions the pomanay plant which Cirin has bred to prevent pregnancy in unmarried girls. Pomanay could be pig latin for Npoman remove the P and "No man" plant?
- In issue 74 Jaka had told Cerebus that she was going to have Rick's baby in a couple months. She continued stating that she didn't want to have a family this soon, that they need the money she makes in the tavern and that the thing she was most afraid of was having a baby would make her ugly, and she wouldn't be able to dance for a living any more.
