With his training finished, Glaide leaves to seek out his friends.  Along the way, he intentionally lends his aid to a number of people, especially a young stranger who he accompanies back to her homeland.  Through his actions, he begins to make his own way in the world, even as he finds himself putting his quest on hold.
Happy to be on Galadria, and finally conscious of the realities surrounding him, he goes on a journey marked by its tranquility.
