Chapter 22 Summary

The next night, Casiopea and Hun-Kamé sneak into the Uay Chivo’s house. The witch told Hun-Kamé his necklace is within a safe with three locks. Hun-Kamé opens the final one and finds nothing. Two men arrive, one of whom is the Uay Chivo; he is wearing the necklace. The Uay Chivo hurls a ball of fire at Hun-Kamé, knocking him down, and the Uay Chivo and his men cast a circle of fire around Hun-Kamé and Casiopea. Hun-Kamé taunts the Uay Chivo, saying his magic looks weak and won’t hold out for long. The Uay Chivo retorts that he doesn’t have to hold Hun-Kamé forever: “I only have to slow you down” (216). The he leaves, limping from the strain of the magic.

To escape the ring of fire, Hun-Kamé turns invisible, and Casiopea yells that he managed to escape. A guard rushes in to check, and Hun-Kamé drags the man into the fire, breaking the circle and eliminating the fire. They find the Uay Chivo in his bedchamber, and he turns into a giant fire-breathing goat to attack them. After a struggle, Hun-Kamé beheads the Uay Chivo and retrieves the necklace.
