The night continues without further incident, and soon the party ends, with all the guests returning to their quarters or homes, and sleeping off the night's revelry. On the morning of the next day, each one of you finds a letter has been delivered to you in the night, every one of them graced...

(This is your last chance to do something at the ball. The night is coming to an end.)

The duke sighs wearily. "No, I think I should be alone. Thank you, lady Taerin."
