Said she just dreamed a dream.
Dreamed of the day that she was born.
Dreamed of the day that the sages found her.
Alas, but where had Lord Rukkhadevata gone to? We all [sic] eager to meet her once again.
Realizing the Lord had perished, around her they gathered. To tears, they were dashed.
In the end, Nahida was locked in by the devout. In the end, to no one could Nahida reach out.

This will not be the end of it... I shall seek revenge.
You will regret this!
