Description:  Arriving in Peru, Phil meets Lazlo, currently disguised as a priest named Father Llew Llewellyn. Lazlo informs his friend that the Scarabeus is hidden amongst a hoard of Inca gold, which the local tribe has hidden to keep it safe from the approaching Spanish army. Lazlo then entrusts his magic bracelet to Phil, and together they set off in search of the Scarabeus, unaware that they are being watched by Belor. Disguising herself as the Princess Lakiki, the evil witch meets with Don Philippe and Don Rodriguez of the Spanish army, offering to help them find the hidden gold in exchange for just one item of treasure: the Scarabeus; it seems that the gold is soon to be removed from its hiding place for inclusion in the Ceremony of the Sun, a religious rite in which a chosen victim is sacrificed to the Incas' sun god. Exploring the caves, Phil and Lazlo meet the reluctant victim, a young girl named Chiquitta, who takes Phil to be a prince because of the royal bracelet he wears. The trio are interrupted by the arrival of the Spanish officers, who want retribution after Father Llewellyn sold them barrels of earth instead of gunpowder. Lazlo and Phil beat a hasty retreat as the soldiers approach with swords drawn; in the confusion Phil drops the bracelet, which is promptly seized by Belor's servant, Bram Ð however, instead of giving the object to his mistress, Bram decides to use its power for his own endsÉ
