A man (later identified as the thief), representing The Fool tarot card, lies in the desert with flies covering his face.

After a dispute with a priest, the thief eats off the face of his wax statue and sends it skyward with balloons, symbolically eating the body of Christ and offering "himself" up to Heaven.

There he finds the alchemist and his silent assistant.
