We see him walk out into a moon lit clearing where he collapses under a tree and blacks out. The shouts and barking have stopped.
The old man wakes to find that he has been poisoned and there is a spreading blue wound on his side. His skin is peeling in the area.
He has no water or food, and can not even stand, he is going to die.

A shadow is developing on the planet
10. EXT, FOREST CLEARING - DAY
Haron runs out of hiding towards the old man, who lifts his head at the noise.
The elder is stunned at the sight of Haron, he rolls out of the way of a sword swing.
He shouts for haron to stop as he gets to his feet.
He manages to disarm Haron and kick him down, he draws a knife.
Harons hood has fallen revealing his black hair. He charges the old man who flicks the knife around in his hand, the point is facing his own heart.
Haron impacts him, he gasps and is still.
Haron steps back abruptly. we see the knife is plunged in to the elders chest, he slumps then falls forward and crumbles to the soil.
Haron breathes deeply, he goes pale. He sees the old mans bag and looks though it.
He finds a book, it is the book his father used to read to him as a child. Haron pulls back the hood of the old man revealing his black hair.
We see land grow darker. A solar eclipse is unfolding.
We see the soil go black with blood around Daelin’s body, it fills the screen.
