She tells her that the greatest warrior is El Muestro Blanco, who lives as a recluse in the jungle thanks to the previous king, and that she had tried to invite her back after the old king died. She sent warriors to look for her, but "she made it very clear that they were not welcome." The camera then zooms in on three consecutive guards. The first has a golden eyepatch, the second has a golden hook for a hand, the third has a golden hook ... for a head.
