He then vows to the other rabbits that he will meet with the Alpha wolf, and if need be, kill him. With the full support of the king's guard, Turner proceeds to take power in a bloodless coup. Hickory orders his guards to kill Turner, but in light of Hickory's dealings with the wolves, they refuse. Having learned the terrible truth, Turner confronts king Hickory about the wolves. Seeing no reason to continue the charade, Jack explains the entire situation to Turner before being killed by him in single combat. Despite this, Turner finally tracks Jack down, finding him not far from where the soldiers were defeated. On the way, Turner encounters and is forced to fight a desperate guard in need of money who had tracked him after he left the hall, a wolf, and five rabbit soldiers Jack had sent to kill him. Grateful, Turner leaves the Hall and goes north to continue pursuing Jack. However, most of the guards see Turner as a hero and refuse to attack him, instead pretending that they haven't seen him. After seeing that Jack's body is missing, Turner correctly surmises that Jack had gone to the Rocky Hall (the location of the Rabbit Kingdom's monarchy) after betraying him, and decides to pursue him there.Īfter Turner reaches the Rocky Hall, one of the guards there informs him that Jack has offered a reward for killing him.

To do this, Jack decides to trick Turner into killing the raiders. To secure the deal, he sent Jack, one of his most loyal servants, to kill the local raiders, since they would be the only real resistance the wolves would encounter. Afraid for his life, the rabbit king Hickory agreed to this takeover, providing that the wolves do not harm him. Not wanting to make the same mistakes as before, they plan to conserve their food supply by enslaving and farming the citizens of the rabbit kingdom rather than hunting their new food supply to extinction. Unbeknownst to Turner, a pack of wolves from a nearby island killed and eaten all of the prey that lived there, and have come to Lugaru to find more food.
