Surfacing Chapter 26 Summary

  • That night, she makes another lair and sleeps there.
  • The next morning, she awakes knowing that "they have gone finally, back into the earth, the air, the water, wherever they were when I summoned them" (26.2). As a result, all those rules are over and she can do whatever she wants.
  • So, she heads back to the cabin, where she thinks about what to do next and eats. She considers heading back to the city.
