Lotem found herself in the strange lands. She looked behind her and saw the same man Zimba saw approaching her. She was startled as she backed off but the man stopped before her and said, "welcome to the aboard of the oracles. Here we welcome the dead from the land of the living. We keep their souls safe as well"

"I know that I'm dead and I know that my my brother is equally dead. I came to be with him" Lotem said.

The oracle explained to her what happened and how he sent Zimba's spirit back to the land of the living to enjoy his youth and old age. Lotem covered her face with both hands. She knelt down and begged the oracle to send her back but the oracle shook his head. "We sent him back because he brought glory and change to the lands we protect. You found the ring but he brought it to us. He is the one we know. I can't send you back. Come and join the rest of the dead who died during the great war in the lands of the living" the oracle said and started walking away. Lotem had no other choice but to follow him. At least she was happy her brother was alive again.

In the shrine of the priest of Lobatam, Feb, Ama and the soldiers who came in when they heard Zimba's cries were struggling the dagger with him as he was determined to kill himself again and travel back to the land of the oracles. Feb seized the dagger from him and the soldiers took him out of the shrine.

In the palace, the king of the lands were celebrating their victory. The Seers of the lands were there as well and so were the generals who helped fight the army of the dead. Zimba was seated in his tent in the palace. He was seated like a ghost, staring into space. Ama and Feb tried to talk to him but he kept quite. Ama took Zimba's parents out of the tent, assuring them that their son will be save. They refused to go home and sat in the palace.

"Zimba. You need to understand that Lotem is gone and try to accept that fact" Feb said to him.

"Feb. You don't understand. Lotem can't die. Feb, do you trust me?"

"I trust you Zimba" Feb assured him.

"Then you must take me back to the shrine. I need to get back to the land of the oracles. I have to" Zimba said while holding Feb by the shoulder. Feb looked at him for sometimes and nodded convincingly before sneaking him out of the tent to the shrine. While in the shrine, Zimba told Feb to leave. Feb shook his head and left.
