Still chased by the [[Mad Gardener (Our Strange and Wonderful House)|Mad Gardener]], the visitor takes a wrong turn and, running out of path, ends up reluctantly running out of the marked path and into the foliage. There, they soon reach a dead end, their way cut off by a wall of glass panels which soon reflect a vision of horror: the Mad Gardener's true angelic form morphing into a [[demon]]ic one. The Gardener manages to plant the machete in the chest of the visitor's body armour, though it holds and they are not injured. Keeping them on the ground, the Gardener yanks out the machete and prepares to behead the visitor. | Still chased by the [[Mad Gardener (Our Strange and Wonderful House)|Mad Gardener]], the visitor takes a wrong turn and, running out of path, ends up reluctantly running out of the marked path and into the foliage.

The [[Mad Gardener (Our Strange and Wonderful House)|Mad Gardener]]'s machete blow is blocked unexpected by a steel spade held by another man who wears body armour under a long coat, “camouflaged with paints in green and brown and various twigs and leaves”. As they circle each other, dueling like swordsmen with their respective unlikely weapon, the Mad Gardener seems to recognise the other, whom he calls [[Grigori (Our Strange and Wonderful House)|Grigori]]. The other angel replies that the Gardener has “succumbed to the madness”, and asks him to please surrender now rather than make this harder than it has to be. Naturally, the Gardener refuses, tackling Grigori with an animalistic shriek and attempting to stab him. | |||
