After receiving help from a woman of black he met beside a well, he leaves Aram behind and continues the journey by himself. However, Aram follows him. Amidst war, Lot arrives at the town for collecting his son's body. Then another battle starts and Aram witnesses the death of his father, Moab. Just like a dream, Moab appears in front of Lot and Aram who have fallen in despair, and the three of them eat together. Afterwards, Lot and Aram bury Moab under a tree.
