Synopsis:
Arak and his companions continue their voyage at sea. Malagigi is nearing death, so Arak uses his new talents as a shaman to augment the wizard's strength. Eventually the ship makes port on the island of Al-Hind.
The group goes ashore and is captured by Samakin, an old adversary of Re-Is Hazz. The pirate leader plans to sell the travelers to a priest on the island for use as sacrifices. Re-Is Hazz is able to break the ropes holding Arak, and the warrior shaman begins to fight the priest of Shiva who has been transformed by his god into a monster. Arak wins the fight and releases the others from captivity.
