As Mentu continues to fight each year against his enemies, he eventually starts to question the purpose of it all.  He no longer see the point of having to kill in order to take something from another human.  "We are not animals and this is not a hunt," he says to himself.  

One day in battle he decides to quit.  Just as he does so, he is stabbed by an enemy and falls unconscious.  When the battle is over, the dead bodies lay on the ground.  A woman is seen among them, treating the ones who have a chance at survival and helping those who don't.  Mentu awakes when she starts applying an ointment to his wounds.  He is delirious and vulnerable and suddenly falls in love with her.  She tells him that he will survive and to rest until his men arrive. 

Mentu is eventually carried back to his home, but he cannot stop thinking about the woman that helped him among the dead on that battlefield.  Who is she?
