[Eustace is keeping a careful eye as he plays. So far the rats hadn't seemed threatening to them, only altering things around them in negative ways but nothing too severe, but one could never be too careful to what are apparently Erasers. He had to wonder why minions from the Story Eater are scurrying about...but that's a question he can deal with later. First was getting rid of them.
So he continues to play, eventually turning around while glancing back to see if anymore rats will pop out of the branches. The good news after the first initial few, about ten more appeared and none after that. Judging from the way the branches are lowering behind them as if to prevent the rats from turning around, he takes it as a sign that they have them all. So with a nod to Tifa, they continue their musical way out the front door and down the stairs, the rats scurrying close behind.
Eventually they make it to the ground and Eustace will guide them down the path leading out of town.]
