Gomez, Chris, Marek, and Kate step out of the machines, which disappear. Gomez explains that the machines “drift” when not in use but can still be summoned by pressing a button on the ceramic marker. Chris notes the monastery and the fortified mill bridge, and Marek studies the wall of Castelgard and the farmers working in the field. Outside the town walls, people are preparing for the tournament. Kate remarks on in the medieval architecture. Baretto arrives; he has a pistol and grenades.
Back in the control room, a technician receives an indication that one person will be returning in 20 minutes and 57 seconds.
Back in Castelgard, Gomez and Baretto argue about his modern-day weaponry. He agrees to put the weapons on the floor of his cage. While they argue, Kate, Chris, and Marek head toward the monastery. They have not gotten very far when a boy comes running out of the woods, warning them to hide. Men on horseback gallop behind him. Kate, Chris, and Marek run away from the path and into the woods. Gomez is too slow and is beheaded by a horseman dressed in black. Baretto is hit with an arrow and prepares to throw a grenade at the horsemen from the cage of his machine.
