hendrickson is in his lab, preparing to play a game of hide-and-seek with his son. He's worried about his son's safety, and he's also worried about the safety of the king. He tells his son to be careful of the ice block, because it's going to get stuck in the ice and cause a lot of trouble. He also tells him to pull back and protect the king, because the ladies are going to be there to protect him. But hendy reminds him that the magic doesn't work, and that's why they're going to have to fight with swords instead of magic. He reminds his son that he and the king are both stained with blood, and they can't even atone for the sins they've committed. He asks his son if he'll ever be able to forget all of the innocent blood that he spilled, hoping that he won't have to commit more crimes against his friends. The two of them agree that they'll have to decide what to do with their friends, and then they all head off to fight.
