Together they start a journey through the circles of hell. Inside the circle of Malebolge he meets vary famous caracthers of the poem: Minosse, Farinata degli Uberti, Pier della Vigna. Inside the Caina he listen to the story of Count Ugolino and then of the three headed Lucifero, who tears apart a man. The lustful dragged by the storm, Prophet Mohammed’s torn-apart chest, the smashed-in head of Bertran De Born, the trasformation of thieves into snakes. Lucifer appears huge and shows us a man who keep moving his legs while trapped into Lucifero’s teeths.
