There was one directly above her.

She moved her hand so that the light fell on her zodiac ring, and sat turning it this way and that to watch the dull gleams.

By the bloodstone on her finger she was vowing that her courage should fail not in helping Jack "pick up the gauntlet which Despair flung down, and wage the warfare to his very grave." All the way through the story she had read Jack for Aldebaran, and it should be her part to play the role of the Jester who had led him back to hope.

She opened the book again at the sentence, "The motto written deep across his heart was this: '_To ease the burden of the world._'" Henceforth that should be her aim in life, to ease Jack's burden.
Together, "by sheathed sword since blade was now denied him," they would prove his right to the Sword of Conquest.
Some great load seemed to lift itself from her own shoulders as she made this resolution.

She was glad that she had been born in Mars' month.
