Himiko appears to be severely injured and one of her attendants is trying to tend to her wounds. You may feel incredibly compelled to talk with Himiko, but if your party sustained a tremendous amount of damage in the battle with Orochi, it is recommended that you first leave Jipang <span style="color:green">(Zipangu)</span>, and heal at an inn before returning to speak with Himiko. She will remain wounded when you return.

When you are ready, speak with Himiko. She will assume that you now know her secret identity as the Orochi. She will promise not to eliminate you if you keep his secret. You can agree, and nothing will happen. If you don't promise to keep her secret, she will transform back into Orochi and challenge you one more time!

Despite her bravado, this battle will be a near duplicate of the previous battle <span style="color:green">(This is not so in the Remakes. She will be stronger, but in return you will receive more Exp and 1000 gold.)</span>. She will use all the same strategies, so you should continue to use whichever strategies worked best for you the last time. Orochi will tend to attack directly more often, and breathe fire a little less. Equipping the Orochi Sword should help you cause a little more damage to Orochi than last time. After you defeat him, you'll find another treasure chest, but this one will only contain gold.

The real treasure chest is the one that is left in his place in Jipang <span style="color:green">(Zipangu)</span>. Open it, and you will find the '''[[File:Dragon Warrior 3 GBC Purple Orb.png]][[File:Dragon Warrior 3 SNES Purple Orb.png]] Purple Orb'''. This is likely to be the first of six orbs that you have collected. News about Himiko and the Orochi will spread throughout town. Many of the citizens will thank you for your brave deeds. Some will surmise that the original Himiko was killed by the Orochi, who then took her place. One occupant will suggest that you can find the Invisibility Herb in a town far to the south of Baharata, a clue that might help you if you have not been inside of Castle Eginbear yet.
