Soldest eventually sent his lackeys to take Asha's child after it was born, and Asha died defending the child. Soldest's Wife wished to keep the child and raise it as her own, but Aliza believed this not and kidnapped the child, taking it into Keening to deliver it to Tristessa. Called by Soldest's wife, George Weathermay rode after her on Perseus, briefly encountered Aliza before she scored a surprise knockout blow off of him with her cudgel.

Weatermay arose to find Aliza giving the child to the banshee. Aliza told Weathermay she wished not to cut the future that she saw for Weathermay short, but that Weathermay would perish if he interfered with the banshee. With that, Aliza escaped the scene.
