Archbishop ruggieri with the ghibelline families, hunts down and kills. Ugolino and his sons: possible ugolino cannibalized his children. Third ring: ptolomea, traitors against their guests. Ptolemy killed simon (his father-in-law and high priest) and two of his sons while they were dining with him: souls jut out from ice, eyes sealed by frozen tears, fra alberigo and branca doria. Still alive on earth but already in hell. As soon as a soul becomes a traitor (alive) a demon takes its body and once they die their soul goes straight here: the souls don"t know what they"re doing on earth now. Killed his relative manfredo and manfredo"s son during a banquet in his house. Signaling his assassins with an order to bring the fruit.
