After the marriage he continues his visit to the studio. Securing her portrait, he hangs it in his room and burns incense before it at night. His strange power effects Lucile in a weird, telepathic way. Later Zarak exhibits an odd lamp which he tells them belonged to one of his fire-worshiping ancestors. At Zarak's suggestion, Lucile repeats an incantation which he recites. All are astonished to see a clear bright flame issue from the lamp. With the assistance of an accomplice, Zonia, Zarak succeeds in placing Cyril in compromising positions with Zonia. These witnessed by Lucile, her faith in Cyril is shocked.
