When Night Eagle reaches the top of the stair he finds himself in the central building of DAANY BEÉDXE. The view is wonderful; the clean and blue sky welcome him.

A familiar voice tells him —"you came just in time, we are waiting for you to leave". The warrior sought out the voice and when he turned, found the Venerable Teacher of DAANY BEÉDXE. Star serpent was that old man that spoke to him, when he was still a child and told him that he would expect his arrival to the holy mountain and fulfill his destiny.

Star serpent was still the same old man he met when he was a child, without any physical change, when he was his teacher in DAANY BEÉDXE.

Star serpent added, as if reading the warrior thoughts:

—For a man of knowledge, time no longer works in the same way as for common men. A man of knowledge can live in one day, ten years of common life. The time has intensity and in an instant, eternity can be reached.

For you may have been many years since we met, for my might be very little time. A man of knowledge learns to compress time.

Night Eagle was with his Teacher, in the main building of the great plaza of DAANY BEÉDXE. Except for him, which denoted the passage of years, because his body despite being flexible and grown, his hair was white and his face, had carved an expression of peace and wisdom. It seemed that he had not spent all those long years away from the holy mountain.

Night Eagle not only had recovered his memory and also his identity, in the stone of the cave at the place of the dead.
