Saix is standing in the gym, claymore out although not yet displaying its full collection of spikes. A couple of cannonballs gibber indignant nonsense where they've been sent crashiong back across the room after being fired at Saix, and the scene is a little like the most violent and dangerous game of tennis ever known.

Seemingly, the mansion was blocking his ability to simply leave through a portal of darkness, making this task that much more difficult. For now, Saix's solution is to make his progress across the gym by deflecting whatever cannonballs come at him with his claymore.
