Scaffold During the second half of the 17th century, Jan Stolpecki is sentenced to death for treason. Colonel Krzysztof Dowgird, a Prussian officer and Polish noble, protests the verdict.

Altercation Knothe arrives at Magda's Manor with his Rajtars, and tells her that harboring the fugitives carries a death sentence. She shrugs off his threat, and tells him to go to the nearby monastery. At the same time, a group of Elektor soldiers unexpectedly arrives at the monastery. 5. The Black Bag After a few days, the Colonel and Kacper leave the monastery. They come across a carriage being chased by robbers.
