un: any fin is possible (audio & text)
While I doubt any of us expected it to be an especially happy one, I believe I’ve learned a piece of the ending to the story of our ghostly escort and the lady he gathered an army to rescue. Drawing from my notes in part and for those of you who might be making your own, I'll switch to writing this out.
[ Nevermind the prying ears, and how fed up she is with getting the third degree from the ghosts. ]
My friend the soldier has found peace - entirely due to the help of Wei Wuxian, but before going off to rest, he spoke to us about what happened when the army reached Taravast. Given the circumstances, I don’t have his recollection written down word-for-word, but this is what I wrote down as soon as I was able to:
Arha’s army was bound for Taravast to take the lady Hatisse from her Attaryl sisters during a time of conflict with the Bessis. The lady Hatisse told Lord Arha that she would open the gates so that his forces could slip into Taravast. They arrived to find the gates shut, and both sects of witches on the wall, raining down fire, tar, and arrows.
He mentioned seeing the lady Hatisse on the wall, and the last thing he had to say on the matter stuck out to me - he said he saw her and met her eye, “it’s long hurt, burning, but she watched me through it.” This stuck out to me. It almost sounds as though her eye were an object, or that she only had one eye.
I know at least one of you that I've spoken with encountered pictures of an eye when you were pulled into the caverns beyond the walls, and I can't help but wonder if it's related, and what it could mean. If her eye is an object, and it’s still in Taravast, it would be wise to know before we arrive, particularly if it’s something dangerous (my friend did say her eye burned) and still in someone’s possession.

Visions aren't always so clear. I had a difficult enough time interpreting visions of events that already happened. From what I've heard, visions of the future are far more difficult to divine.

Which, from what one can glean of his character, would have made him jump to do just the opposite. She certainly is very eloquent.

[ A pause before she quickly adds to that. ]
I mean the situation is hardly brilliant but that you're privy to this knowledge is. Would you mind terribly if I sought you out? I'd like to add the bits you've caught to my notes, and I'll share what I've written down already if you like. It doesn't make sense for us to have pieces of this puzzle and not work to put them together.
This does explain the haste with which he gathered his forces to go to the city, but it doesn't exactly clarify why it is she betrayed them. Why dismiss him, but also offer to open the gates?
