When the door swung open to reveal the imposing red demonoid form of Naoto, Tybalt recognised him immediately. "That's him!" he called to his companions. As Naoto charged, he and the three other pikemen braced themselves and strengthened their grip on their pikes for the impending collision. The musketeer leveled his musket and aimed down the barrel, lining up the ironsights with the demon's head. Just as he was about to pull the trigger, the ground shook and threw his aim off. The earsplitting crack of the gunshot was accompanied by the scattering of small shards of rock as it struck the door-frame.

Then, by magic, Emily's stone wall put a barrier between the demon and guards. The guards were uncertain as to what was going on, and they were further disarmed when a young girl climbed atop the wall and berated them. Unsure whether to feel ashamed or angry or confused, the guards lowered their weapons for the time being. Tybalt, however, was not so easily placated. "That beast," he cried, pointing at Naoto, "killed Gunter!"

One of the bowmen stepped forwards and put his hand on Tybalt's shoulder, gently restraining him and indicating for him to calm down. With no further response from Tybalt, the bowman said to Emily, gesturing to Naoto, "This, umm, being, is charged with murder, assaulting a guard, theft and kidnapping. These are very serious offences. We are tasked with eliminating threats to the safety of our town and kingdom."
