You draw upon your Magnakai skill of Kai-screen to mask your presence here in the ruins, but the Vordak detects a mental resistance where there should be none. It shrieks an unearthly cry and at once the troop of Giaks respond by drawing their swords and charging towards your hiding place.

Confident of success, you emerge from the shattered building and challenge your enemy—six Giaks and their Vordak lieutenant—to combat on the street bordering the square.
