;Plot Summary
Spensa finds Chet, and they both go to the last portal. In the memory, [[Jason Write|a human]] steps through the portal, followed by a floating silvery sphere. The sphere is home to an AI, and it talks to the human. Chet says softly that it sometimes takes years for an AI to start thinking for itself. Spensa gets a good look at the floating sphere, and it reminds her of the delver maze. Chet whispers that when they are forced to build a body again, they unconsciously reach for something familiar. Spensa realizes that Chet is a delver, the one that she changed during his attack on Starsight.
 
Chet says that the other delvers wanted to destroy him, so he hid himself, joining with Spensa to help guide her. He formed the body and personality of Commander Spears, who had visited the nowhere long ago. Chet did this because he thought Spensa would trust someone familiar that she knew of. Chet apologizes and asks for Spensa not to hate him. Chet says that the reality ashes made him feel like a real person, and that he enjoyed exploring the nowhere with her. Spensa says that she doesn’t hate him. Spensa struggles to comprehend the influx of new information, and comes to the conclusion that delvers are AI. Chet tells her that the last stop in the Path of Elders is the Solitary Shadow, a white fragment very close to the lightburst. It contains his memories, things that the delvers purposefully forgot.
