Gabrielle is happy to see that Poteidaia is a thriving village, but is a bit apprehensive about approaching her house. Eve says that as long as the people inside are okay, she has nothing to worry about. Xena encourages her to go ahead while she, Eve, and Virgil wait. Before Gabrielle can knock on the door, it’s opened by her sister, Lila. The reunion is bittersweet when Lila says that a raider named Gurkhan kidnapped her daughter, Sarah, eight years ago. And that when their parents learned where she was, they sold much of their farm and went with Lila’s husband to retrieve Sarah – but Gurkhan had them killed. Xena promises Gabrielle that they will go after her niece. Gabrielle says that this will be more than a rescue mission. She wants vengeance for her parents’ murders.
