After lingering a month in the camp, the old Brule announced to Souk he was about to send the chiefs to receive the presents for Chaf-fa-ly-a's hand, and if the young man and his friends wished to return home it would be a favourable opportunity for them to do so. Souk took the hint and made preparations accordingly.
By the advice of the old chief, the party took another route, and, although it was two days longer, it brought them in safety to the Ogallalla encampment. At Souk's request, his father immediately assembled the council, and the negotiations for Chaf-fa-ly-a's hand began.
Chaf-fa-ly-a's horse bore her light weight without seeming fatigued, but Souk was heavy and his steed began to show signs of distress. Far in the distance they could see the blue line of the gap that still lay between them and safety; and, hurriedly refreshing themselves from a spring of pure water, they again set out, hoping to reach it before night.
