Summary

After laying out Holy's condition for her, Joseph persuades Anne to head back home to Hong Kong. With thick fog making the cliffside road toward Karachi too dangerous to drive, the group pulls into a nearby town to look for lodging. A silent restaurant owner offers no directions, and moments later the travelers stumble upon a corpse lying in the street, with no clear cause of death.

When no one else in town seems to register the dead man at all, the group grows uneasy and begins to suspect a Stand user is at work, their fears deepening once they find the body is pierced with holes that have not bled. Deciding it is time to leave, Joseph leaps toward what he takes to be their car and only just avoids being run through by a spiked gate. It is then that Enya steps forward, presenting herself as a harmless old woman and guiding them to a nearby hotel.

As the group settles into their rooms, Hol Horse turns up, having followed the Joestar party to the town. Convinced he deserves death for abandoning J. Geil, Enya slashes his wrist with a pair of scissors and calls on Justice, her Stand that takes the shape of the fog itself, to open a hole from the wound. She then puppets Hol Horse's arm through that hole and makes him shoot himself with his own Emperor, before turning her attention toward her next mark, Polnareff.
