The two men discuss how they can use the soul bone to destroy the claw. The first man says that he already has the bone in his arm, but he can't use it to destroy himself. The second man argues that they can only use the bone to divert the claw's power to themselves. He says that if he gets hurt, he'll cure him at all costs. The man then says that the claw is even more powerful than before because he's using his soul skill to counteract the energy. He's even using a knife to cut through the skin of the claw to get at the bone. The third man points out that the knife is piercing his hand, and that the energy is destroying and repairing the bones in the hand. The men say that this is the end of the story. The sun moon empire and the virtuous hall are the only places they can enter.
