From his cell, Bosse relates to Bebin the story of how he first met Miranjo when she was a little girl. Domas and Hokuro make their apologies to Hiling, then head off to assist Bojji. Bojji has his hands full with Ouken, but receives help from Despa.

Realizing that Bosse did not wish to be brought back to life, Miranjo apologizes. Bosse issues an ultimatum to the others present to either side with him or be killed. Despa fears that Bojji may not measure up as his showdown with Bosse gets underway.
