Gale's surroundings correspond to Coordinate 136, but it appears to actually be night time. He stands alone on a balcony overlooking the Junkyard. He feels as if he is missing something, but he is unable to place exactly what. He sighs finally, seemingly willing to give up. He turns to leave and rejoin his Tribe...
And stops, startled by the sight of Sera tucked into bed and sleeping soundly, with Jenna Angel closing a book and setting it aside before standing and approaching him. She's...smiling.
"What's on your mind?"
The question confuses him for all of a moment. "What are you..."
She folds her arms, giving him a mischievous look. "Well, I thought that since Sera is finally asleep, we might want to get to bed ourselves. You know."
He levels his eyes at her, stepping back. "What are you doing?"
It's like he's said something else entirely. "I don't know either. But I'm happy. I have you...and our beautiful daughter. That's all I could hope for." She comes closer, embracing him gently. "Oh, and she wants to go play with Serph and the others again tomorrow. I hope you don't mind..."

*After practically forcing himself awake, Gale looks around, attempting to catch his breath. Eventually he spots the Dreamberry, and sighs. It's time to tell the truth.*
