The wind oracle tells the priest that he is the one who created the shield, and that if he had not, he would have killed the priest. The priest tells the man that he has been ordered to kill him and his demon, but that he does not have a choice. He knows that the demon gave the priest half of his own heart to save the man's life, and he is testing the marks on the chest of the dead man to see if the marks are permanent. He asks the man if he has made up his mind to help his bloodline regain its ancient power, and the priest tells him that he did not fall in love with the girl right away, but was driven mad by his own death. He says that the priest should not hurt the priest, because the priest is the man who took the sacred weapon from him, and if the priest breaks the barrier and calls it back to his sister, she will have no trouble returning it.
