One of those good news/bad news things. They're no longer going to be hunting Matiph but that also means Matiph and Jree are without any family again (although then again in the band I'm not sure how 'family' they were). On another good side it does mean they won't be sent to the mines. Then again it looks like they'll still be on the run.
So, um, my advice for Matiph is still the same. Run boy, run!
