The next morning, the mayor and his men discuss their strategy. They're going to try to get the wall down, but first they need to figure out what's going on with Koron. The mayor says that he had the townspeople leave the town and go to a nearby community center, but he doesn't know if that's a good idea because Koron convinced the townspeople that everything was natural and that they shouldn't worry about the future. He also says that the townspeople will forgive him for his hard work in the past six years, and that he'll be celebrating his seventh year as mayor on Monday. Koron asks the mayor if he's worried about the dragon, and the mayor says he is. He's not worried about him, he says, because the barrier isn't affecting him at all. He says that they should get rid of the barrier or both sides will be dead meat. The district mayor says they should find the barrier and destroy it, but Koron says they're useless because they can't figure out where it is.
