Seeing the handwriting in the message, his aunt knew straight away that it was him. His grandmother had led all of the Royal family to believe that he was taken away to Cavonia for safety, but that he would not return. To the Cavonian soldiers, she had simply said that he had been killed at the same time as his parents.
The poem was a special communication between the two of them, because she used to read it to him when they were talking about how he would be king in the future. As a kind aunt, and as a sister of his father, it was understood that her family would take over the throne, once the Queen Mother had passed away.
Of course this raised the question of who would take the throne rightfully now?
The poem fluttered away in the breeze when his aunt fainted. It blew out the window to the street, so no one else could read it. However, once she woke up, she remembered the poem, and knew that she needed to give a response to Ross and Tarn, who were still waiting outside her apartment.
She wrote a quick message to Fillun, and understanding the danger to his life, made it to be something that only he would understand.

Dear blackbird
You have been waiting for this moment all your life, and the time has come for you to fly. Let us meet in another time and place where we can fly together.
Yours truly

Accompanied with the message, in the envelope, was a very hastily sketched map of the country. The X on the paper marked the spot of the town of Zoroastria. Fillun's aunt understood instinctively that his grandmother had been visiting and meeting him there; and she understood that this was the closest place to the border with Cavonia.
A "+2" beside the x helped to understand that they would meet in Zoroastria two days from now. She gave the envelope to Ross and Tarn, who walked back quickly to the staff quarters and gave it to film.
"Bonnar," said Fillun, "my aunt has replied and we need to go to Zoroastria to meet her. We are expected there in two days. Can we leave now?"
Bonner replied quite simply, "Let's go".
With the staff , they were able to make excuses that they needed to take the horses for exercise.
Within an hour, all four horsemen were traveling north towards Zoroastria, hoping for Fillun to meet his aunt once more and in privacy.
