Royston is sitting on the beach, under the watchful and disgusted eye of the Portuguese soldier. Royston spots the Vedor and the Utheem brothers being escorted up the beach and into the smaller boat.
He attempts to join them, but the Portuguese soldier guarding him, punches him, knocking him to the ground.
The Portuguese soldier that punched him hops into the small boat, leaving Royston alone on the beach, without a clue as to what was happening and where his new friends were being taken.
As Royston gazes as the disappearing boat, Aisha and Sitti rush up to Royston, pulling him away from the beach, saying there was no time to waste.
