"I want everything. Tomorrow, you'll have to be present with me in front of the Emperor and go on a journey. The rest, you will find it out on your own," said Soya. Avon had no other options but to agree to her demand, he thought and replied, "Okay, but I want Nancy with me." Soya burst out laughing again, "Do you consider me as stupid as her? I know the minute I bring Nancy to you, you won't let me live." Avon knew what Soya said was true. And he also knew that bringing Nancy back was more important than anything else. "I promise, I won't do any harm to you and do your work as well," he said.
"I don't need your promise! Keep that to yourself. I promise you that nothing will happen to her, and I will hand her over to you safely after we are done with my work," Soya said. Avon found himself in a spot of bother here. "And why should I believe you?" Even Avon, for a second, reconsidered his question, before Soya replied, "I'm afraid, at this point in time, you don't have much choice rather than believing me. And I am not in a state where you can strike a deal with myself. Right now, everything falls in my favour, so it would be better if you quietly tag along with me."
"She is just as crazy and stubborn as Nancy. It is in Nancy's and my best interest that I agree to her demands," Avon thought to himself. Soya walked up to him and took her mother's locket from Avon's grasp as she started to walk away. As she came out of his cell, she went near the guards and told them, "You guys are having fun here while the prisoner is freely roaming outside. Don't you guys fear for your life?"
