\nThe woman explains that she's not responsible for what's going on and while arguing with Pollo and Harvey opens the box of the Magic Coin, which is glowing brightly. She notes that the Coin is responsible for what's happening to Linkara, to the confusion of Pollo and Harvey who note that it doesn't match up with how Linkara uses the Coin. The woman explains the Coin's origins as having originally been part of a magical spear that was created to drive off an EldritchAbomination only for it to be discovered that the spear's mere presence affected humans which required it to be melted down and forged into other items. Harvey is skeptical, noting that everyone has been around the Coin and Linkara is the only one being affected. The woman notes that the Magic Coin responds more to magic users than mundanes, which is why no one else is being influenced. Pollo reluctantly allows her to leave with the Coin on the off chance that getting it away and draining it's magic will help Linkara. Once she leaves they start tracking her, something she's aware of, and Harvey questions Pollo on whether they should trust her. Pollo agrees but doesn't believe she was lying.
