Duilin stared at the bones. It seemed to that this machine eats people, and perhaps wished to eat Duilin now.
It was quite a depressing sight, actually. He then turned his head up, and looked at the large blast flying towards him. His eyes bolted wide open as he spotted it.
"HEY!!" Said a high voice, seemingly out of nowhere a large white feathery winged creature popped right in front of Duilin.
"Ahh, just like Zeros'." Rink said grinning. "Jumps in a just the right moment...wait a second."
The winged one had a shield of light blue energy held in his hand, it was about two feet wide. The blast stuck the shield; he was blown backwards and smashed right into Duilin. The two winged people flew back several yards and piled down in the ground. The entire ground was scorched, several remains of the fortress were flying all over the place, Rink had to run out of the way, and was knocked over by the shockwave off the blast. A rock hit his head. "Oww...." He rested his eyes. "That smarts..."
The area of Bandervill looked very different from how it did before the entire attack. With several large craters all over the place. Not a blade of grass is left, just scorched earth. (Due to the effects of Chapter 9 and the current battle.)
The new commer stood up, with a perfect stance. It appeared to be a human with eagle like wings, wearing a toga and a headband made of leaves. It had a strange shine of light around him and a bright gold ring above his head. He was carrying a long golden rod. He looked like he was quite young, yet tall for his age.
"I am the great Aegidius!" the person spoke; he had a very soft, but heroic sounding voice. "I am an Angel sent by the great Gods and Goddess of Paradise in the capital of Olympus! I have assigned to: Defend the world from abominations that are in threat of destroying this world."
He spun his rod, and held it by the end and pointed it at the machine. "THAT is one of them. Its purpose in life is to only kill others in order to power itself. It has no use, other then to end the lives of others. Solution: It must be removed with full force. It is not alive, therefore no harm what-so-ever would be caused by destroying it."
Duilin still lying on the ground rubbed his eyes and shook his head rapidly. What the heck was this?
The angel stood in its position. Only his arms moved as he put the rod behind it's back, it seemed to just float in place, he held his hands and arms out like he was holding a longbow. Suddenly a longbow made of a magic-type of crystal materialized in his hands. He aimed the bow at the machine. An arrow of a light blue coloured energy appeared as he fired the bow, and the arrow flew towards the exposed cannon.

Marshal hesitated. He couldn't just leave them. He wasn't selfish.
Marshal steps forward, a blue spectre blasts from his amulet to his right hand. He throws the spectre right at the group of people, causing a strange blue explosion, knocking the guards back, as the explosion cleared up, it turned out that what he through was a large group of jel monsters (not gel, mind you). The jel monsters proceeded to consume the brains of the guards in a similar matter that the other gel did. However, since Marshal had a lot of energy and his amulet these jels were quite strong. Half of the jels combined together and made an Oooze. The gelatinous monsters and the prisoners then rushed upstairs ready to take out the rest of the guards. The prisoners gave a few extra stabs at the bodies, and burnt the corpses.
"Hopefully, they'll be able to live..." Marshal said. "But we've got to comeback and help them when he gets the others, okay. Now, how in the heck are we going to get out of here?"
