Later Boris is discovered by Michael bid- ding farewell to Olga. There is a fight with swords. Michael is van- quished by a thrust through the shoulder. Boris escapes. After the war the father and brother of Olga take her to a monastery where she is to take the veil as a punishment for aiding in the escape of Boris.
