In this chapter, Henry tells Petra that Chiron is dead. He tells her that Chiron's body was divided into cages and that he was beheaded. Petra tells him that Chiron was the most powerful man in Alexandria. She tells Henry that Chiron must have been killed by the "normal human beings" who managed to kill him. Henry tells her to get out of the cage, but she refuses, saying that Chiron will get his job done by killing her animals. Henry says that he wishes he could apologize, but he knows that kings do not.
