The captors and their captives marched through ravaged forests, a river, and destroyed cornfields.

One of the injured captives nearly tumbled his group into a cliff and thus made Middle Eye throw him over the cliff. There, in the forest, they met other captives, amid who there was the refugees’ leader who Jaguar Paw had met the day before. After a serious battle, Jaguar Paw was subdued by Middle Eye, who also killed Flint Sky before taking the prisoners into the forest.

He killed a raider and ran back to help for the inhabitants of the village. The village was ravaged many inhabitants were captured while Jaguar Paw managed to hide his pregnant wife, Seven, and his son in a dry well. He then saw a group of invaders led by Zero Wolf, setting the village ablaze. In the morning, Jaguar Paw woke up seeing a vision about the refugees’ leader, asking him to run.
