The same rafter as no 4. Two pairs of goat horns nailed to it and some remnants of horns. fixed behind purlins two spoons. Stuck into the roof straw a knobkerrie which Velabengasho used to return the lighting to that witch he had sent lightning. in case the knobkerrie didn't work Velabengasho used the black staff to the left of it which is besmeared with something glittering.
