Knuckles says that he knows how powerful the creatures are and how little chance he has against them - but that nothing will stop him from trying. Knuckles is easily defeated however - the Tantaragor are an immensely powerful race. One of the heretics immediately tries to operate the Tantaragor idol, but it doesn't seem to work.
The Ghost Ship slowly dissolves and the slaves, heretics and Knuckles all end up Floating in limbo before the gigantic figure of Ekkelos. The heretics realise that the reason they could not use the idol to transport them to their own dimension - is because they were already here.
Turns out that Ekkelos simply wanted Knuckles as a decoy while he brought back the Ghost Ship. He then transports Knuckles, Plunder, Zorabel, Tom (Zorabel's manservant), Simpson, Filch and the slaves back to Pirate Town.
Plunder plans to grab the Idol - which Knuckles still has - when they get back but finds out that the Idol has already gone - seems Ekkelos stopped it from going with them. Plunder explains that without the Idol their deal is off - Knuckles can't have the chest of secrets about the Floating Island. But Zorabel, the cranky wheelchair-bound pirate queen, overrules him saying that Knuckles can of course take the chest. Then she asks Tom to fetch her the knuckledusters; and whilst Plunder, Filch and Simpson run for it, she explains that there's a few things she wants to explain to Captain Plunder...
