— Hey, Gulya! — The trio rushes up to Gulveig, says Alrik. — You finally... Agreed...
— Agreed? — Homeric suggested.
— Yes, agreed to let us talk. What do you have to say in your defense? The court will decide your fate depending on the reasons.

"Mother, and why did I think they would find out everything from my words?"
Well, it was probably easier that way. And much more difficult. And easier.
— What reasons could there be? I came, even though I wasn't invited, and messed everything up. I don't want to make excuses; a foolish act is a foolish act.
Coming here, she thought about framing everything as a fairy tale or somehow softening the story, but in the end, the conversation didn't go as planned. Well, that often happens when it comes to the teacher. The girl sighed.
— I always wanted to be useful to the teacher and be there in difficult times... In the end, you see the result. My presence was enough to bring trouble to the teacher; it has always been that way. And if I really try to help, then things take a very serious turn. I am guilty before you and Teacher Virgil even for giving that very advice about leaving for Marion...
"Mother, even though I wasn't sure that's exactly the advice I was giving."
— And then...
"Hey, why am I getting tears in my eyes? I've already cried about all this a long time ago, haven't I, Mother? Or is it because now I see more clearly that Alrik, Homeric, and Elsa have lost their teacher, possibly forever?"
— In short, the lesson is this: if you don't have a clear plan, if you're not sure of your abilities, never interfere with the affairs of ungodly and scheming people with evil intentions. Especially if someone else is at stake. It's too late for me to regret it, but you—remember. I'm not sure you'll want to listen to me now; my words are a weak authority, and besides... But please, remember this. That's all; you can execute me now.
