- Arak: Asklepios, your incompetence is becoming dangerous for Mogonda. Lord Kortan must be informed about this.
- Asklepios: No, wait !
- [Arak leaves the glass organ room. Asklepios follows him on the corridor]
- Asklepios: If Kortan finds out...
- Arak: Exactly. You're finished, Asklepios. Finished!
- Asklepios: [kneeling before Arak] I beg you, Arak, give me a chance!
- Arak: You wouldn't know what to do even if I did!
- Asklepios: Arak, I'm on the verge of disposing a resistance group. Right here in Mogonda.
- Arak: You'd say anything to save your skin.
- Asklepios: No, I assure you, I'll have all the names soon.
- Valka: [interrupting Asklepios] Sir!
- [Arak leaves]
- Asklepios: Arak!
- Valka: [to the bureaucrats] What are you all staring at? Go back to work!
- Arak: [heading towards Kortan's throne room accompanied by Merr] He was at my feet, Merr, did you see that? That pompous bureaucrat kneeling at my feet!
- Merr: Your goal looks closer than ever, Major.
- Arak: This could mean more power for the Hunters. When Lord Kortan hears how Asklepios has lost control, I wouldn't bet on his future.
- Malone: [jumping before Arak] If I were you, I'd just leave things alone.
- Arak: Malone, what are you babbling about?
- Malone: If you were smart, you'd just let Asklepios keep on messing up.
- Arak: Why should I do that?
- Malone: Because then Kortan will crush him without you having to get involved. Then Mogonda's Lord will depend only on you and you alone.
- Asklepios: [throwing Valka out] I'm sending you back to where you came from, Valka! For good!
- Valka: [talking to herself] Keep this up and someone will send you back farther than you can imagine.
- [Valka closes the door, takes a metal pipe and hits Asklepios with it, knocking him out]
- Arak: [entering Kortan's throne room] Number 28 no longer exists, Lord Kortan. The traitor is terminated.
- Asklepios: [upset] She's...
- Kortan: Good. Now go, Asklepios. Make Mogonda impenetrable once more. Do it!
- Arak: Eternal power to Kortan!
- [Arak and Asklepios leave]
- Malone: [to Asklepios] Never mind, my Lord. There's more where she came from.
