When they reached the trading post, they found the trader being beaten by a bounty hunter.
Bellamy killed the hunter, and Indra followed making sure it was clear.
The trader stood.
"Are you okay? You All right?"
"Bounty hunter."
Faye knelt and examined the lifeless body. "Not Azgeda."
Indra checked the back. "We're here to help." She told the trader.
"English!" Pike demanded.
"Pike, go outside. Take Monty and Hannah and search the perimeter. Make sure he was alone."
"We're looking for Wanheda."
The trader looked over the man's body. "So was he."
"Please. She's in danger." Bellamy said.
"You're Skaikru?" The woman asked.
"Yeah."
"She was here last night."
"Did she say where she was going?" Kane asked, walking over to them.
"No. She was here when I fell asleep, and gone when I woke up."
"She give you any indication of where she might go?" Kane asked.
"No." The trader shook her head. "But he did. He said that his partner came back for her. It was Ice Nation. I hope you find her."
"Thank you."
"Good news." Monty said. "I found fresh tracks."
"Great. Start the Rover." Bellamy said.
"That's the bad news. Too many trees. We have to go one foot."

Indra and Faye followed the tracks, leading Skaikru through Ice Nation.
"The Commander will have your head for being this far north." Indra told Faye.
"Unless the Queen gets to it first." Faye kept going. She followed the tracks they'd kept going after, finally being back to a normal life.
She'd spent two months under the Commander's watch. She'd visited Trikru that last month, ignoring every order to return.
"Quiet." Indra ordered the group behind them. "Listen."
"War drums." Kane realized.
"Azgeda."
"You can tell it's Ice Nation from the sound?" Monty asked.
"No. From them." Indra gestured to the fallen bodies before them.
"We need to get those bodies off the field." Pike said. "Unless you're good with them thinking we did this."
Indra and Faye ran to the bodies.
"What do we do? The Commander doesn't know."
"We ride for Polis." Indra said.
"We can't go with you." Faye told Kane.
"Why?" Kane asked.
"Ice Nation has crossed the border. They're marching against our commander. We have to warn her." Indra explained.
"We'll get Clarke." Kane promised.
"You better. If the Ice Queen gets her first, she'll be dead. And we'll be at war."
