During a wilderness escape, the War God is caught half-dressed and mocked for his 'great figure' while companions cover him with leaves; he refuses and tempers flare. A separate confrontation breaks out when someone reveals Nina's soul was inside an object and it has been destroyed. 'You never told me there was a soul,' someone cries, and Mr. Yeates leaves as orders go out to capture the culprit. Pursuers shout 'Get her!' and 'I'll grind her bones to dust!' Meanwhile the palace reports twenty servants tortured and the Master summons injured Finn to serve, leaving chase and coercion unresolved.
