Honorata is willing to accept her death, but the Corsair is not able to kill her in cold blood and instead he decides to maroon her on a fragile boat. Returning to the Thunder, a Spanish prisoner reveals accidentally this terrible truth, 'Honorata Willerman' is really Honorata de Van Guld, Governor Van Guld's daughter! So the Black Corsair must kill her because he has sworn to kill all those bearing his hated enemy's name. But unfortunately, although they succeed in storming the city, they are late: Van Guld has fled again.
