(On a side note, I guess I forgot to mention that the dados look like Mark. This is because he invented them in another book which you'll have to read if you want to fully understand this concept.) Mark tells Bobby that Nevva Winter put a group of dados in charge of protecting Mark until he leaves. Elli runs off to try and find her daughter and Bobby chases after her. When he catches up to her, he sees her and Nevva calmly embraced on a park bench. Nevva tries to explain to Bobby that her saving Mark doesn't change anything, but Bobby knows better. Bobby's logic finally starts to get through to Nevva, when Saint Dane comes out of nowhere and stabs her in the back. Bobby immediately goes on the offensive and attacks Saint Dane, but he escapes. A moment later, Bobby's attention turns toward Nevva who is on the ground literally flickering away. In a desperate attempt to get information, Bobby asks Nevva where the Exiles are. Just before fading away forever, Nevva whispers, "Black Water". Therefore, Bobby decides he must go to Eelong, and back to Black Water.
And so, with that, Bobby takes a step and arrives on Eelong...right in the middle of the jungle. Oh, and to make matters worse, he's attacked by a tang (a dinosaur-raptor-like creature). After running for a long time, Bobby climbs up a tree, but the tang camps out right under him. While this is happening, a gar (gar is the word for human on Eelong) comes out from the brush and makes the tang obey him by using a dog whistle. Bobby finds this strange because last time he was on Eelong, tangs ate gars. Later, he finds Kasha, the Traveler from Eelong, who is a klee (pretty much a talking panther). She tells Bobby that there have been many changes to her home territory...
