Arakazashi's troops stopped their fighting and retreated from the battle...it seemed like a victory, but it seemed empty like as if Arakazashi hadn't intended to win this battle, but if she wasn't intending to win here...then what other purpose would she have to fight?  Mithra couldn't understand it...normally Arakazashi couldn't stand to lose...it wasn't logical for her to just give up without putting up a fight.  This worried Mithra more than if she had been actually defeated in this religious cat fight.  The other thing that concerned her was Hesgodner disguised as Tyr and the sudden appearance of Tyr's troops after Tyr had gone missing...something didn't add up and Mithra, despite all of her wisdom, couldn't figure out what she was missing from the equation.
