Greenaway's cell was beginning to fray in the years after the Homeworlder left, tensions flailing as progressing failed to be made in unraveling the secret of Nathaniel Silver. Hateman chides Greenaway for her complacency, comparing her with Aki, who they gave up for Greenaway, a recruit with so much potential, never chosen. Greenaway returns to Paris, finding men pouring over Nate's notes, Silver nowhere to be seen. Interrogating them, she discovers that The Service has taken him back to London - le Pouvoir gave him up once the mirrors were made.

As Greenaway considers her situation, Erasmus suggests to her that she retrieve the egg. It's been separated from Silver three times now, something that's quite conspicuous. One time makes sense, but three is so implausible as to be a conspiracy. Erasmus leads her to le Pouvoir's storage vault, where Greenaway fights through wave after wave of guards, slowly making her way to the room where the mirrors that see the future rest on three obelisks. Greenaway closes herself inside and watches the visions, marveling. She commits herself to her task, and one by one, breaks the mirrors, breaks what so many men with steel and sinew failed to dent.  

The shattered points of light that made up the mirrors come together and first form the egg, then sink into her as Erasmus calls to it. As le Pouvoir's guards burst into the room she vanishes, back to London in a heartbeat. She enters the Faction's base of operations to find her cousins missing, only their shadows trapped on the wall. A voice calls out to her "Cousinnnnnnnnnn Greeeeeeenaway", and her world fades to black.
