When he stops for water, he sees extremely disturbing visions of his parents and his people asking why has he forsaken them, followed by a mysterious and ominous armored figure on horseback staring at him. This last apparition frightens Jack so much that he hastily departs on his bike. This happens again in the night, in which he sees a hellish vision of his father surrounded by flames, expressing his displeasure that Jack has forgotten his purpose, and Jack sees the rider once more.

After recovering his stolen tuning fork sword, he destroys the temple and plunges into the river below to escape, passing out from blood loss. His unconscious body floats downstream, bleeding out in the river. In Episode XCIV, a barely
