He reaches a temple on the Nile about which is camped another great army, a countless army of Easterns under the command of the King of kings.

Shabaka and the dwarf give battle to that army and the fray is desperate.

The Great King falls, an arrow from the bow of Shabaka is in his heart.

He enters the temple, a conqueror, and there lies Peroa, dying or dead.
