Before being captured by the enemy, during our battle with the Paladins, Babu sent the signal and used a smoke bomb. The whole palace went up in smoke, as Hiroshi said, but the signal came later than expected. The girls and I tried to sneak out through the smoke, but we were caught just like the others. The Paladins were too strong for us to stop them. And we were tired of fighting.
To set their plan in motion, the enemies captured us and put us in the workshop as bait. Lokash had deliberately left a clue for his father to find this place. Thanks to that clue, he knew his father would come to the abandoned workshop with Ryuu and Babu to rescue us. Everything was going according to Lokash's plan until the epic gave him the axe. However, after receiving the axe and hearing what the epic was going to do, his face did not look happy.
