Redivo led Vaughn and Zenia to where the maid was detained. Vaughn still made Zenia wear a face veil. She went to their bedchamber to retrieve another face veil. She told Vaughn that she would follow them to the dungeon. Vaughn gave a signal to Harnen to wait for Zenia and guard her.

"Open it!" Vaughn commanded the guard on duty.
