Tomas later sends for Mary and says that if she agrees to Mary him, he would send troops right away to Scotland to help her. Mary replies and says that she rejects his proposal because she has to marry a nation not a man at first. Tomas then tells her that he is already be claimed to be the next king of Portugal. Later that night they have a party in the palace and Henry tells Nostradamus to predict the futures of Mary's ladies. He tells Greer that she will fall in love with a man with a white mark on his face. He then tells Mary that the lion will fight the dragon in the field of poppies. Mary gets angry and questions his loyalty against him. Tomas asks Mary to dance with him and both Bash and Francis keep tabs on her.
After awhile, Francis tells Bash that he should send people to help Mary. But after he comes back Bash is gravely wounded and everyone fears his life for him. He tells everyone that he never made it to the battle and by the time he got far enough he was ambushed by a group of people. Henry condemns Francis and teaches him a lesson for not following instructions. When Mary finally catches up to Francis, he tells her that he should marry Tomas and that it would be for the better because he could actually send troops to Scotland. Mary then goes and finds Tomas and says that she accepts his proposal and that in the morning his men would set sail for Scotland. Once in the morning she sees one of the ships having a green dragon on the flag and remembers that this was related to Nostradamus' vision.
