Nimander asks Korlat to attend the marines' funeral and pay their respects to the Malazans. Filled with trepidation, Korlat approaches the barrows and is joined by Kalyth. Kalyth tells her about Gesler and Stormy, and about how they died.
When Korlat comes forward to place Whiskeyjack's heartstone as a barrow gift, she is confronted by her lover's former squad, though the Adjunct steps in. Fiddler asks her if she knew the marines. Understanding from her reaction, he assures her that Whiskeyjack stll loves her and is waiting for her.
The eleven surviving Jaghut, along with Hood, pay their respects to the fallen Imass in solitude. They are joined by Roach.
Brys, Aranict, Abrastal and Spax bid farewell to the Adjunct. Elsewhere, the surviving Bonehunter marines and heavies reunite with the regulars.
When Korlat returns to the Tiste Andii camped nearby, they are joined by Whiskeyjack's squad. Fiddler summons Whiskeyjack's ghost, playing one of Fisher's songs, My Love Waits. Korlat runs to join her beloved.
