The second prince and the fourth prince are worried that the dragon will attack them again. The prince reassures them that he has laid the groundwork for a successful attack. He tells them that the sky-eating snake squad has been sent to kill them. He asks them if they know anyone who knows how to poison snakes. They say that they do, but they are not sure if they were sent after him or not. They ask the prince if he knows anyone who is proficient in poisons. He says that he does, but he is not sure whether the snakes were sent to chase him or to kill someone else. He wants to know if they have new recruits, and he asks the prince to chop off the man's head if he does not wake up soon. He then asks the illusionist to brainwash the man so that he will become a better man.
