Tened is assigned to escort a carriage to the Great Chapel, and the mission, which he thought would proceed smoothly, falls into chaos due to an attack by heretics. As a result, the carriage he was escorting catches fire, and Tened hurriedly opens the carriage door to take out the holy relic. However, instead of the holy relic, there is a child sitting in the carriage...
