Sen Kagemiya strongly suspects that the god that has appeared in Karasumori is the same god of catastrophe mentioned in Saki's prophecy. After hearing this, Yoshimori immediately forms a Kekkai around the god, intending to destroy it. Sen stops him, explaining that killing a god is a serious crime. Yoshimori insists that protecting Karasumori is his duty, which makes this a special circumstance. Sen disagrees, because a great deal of proof would be needed to prove such a thing was necessary, and Yoshimori's family, specifically his mother, is already under suspicion for a related matter. Madarao suggests chasing the god away, which Yoshimori quickly agrees to, but Sen stops him again, since they know nothing about the god's abilities.
