As far as you are aware you yourself are the anomaly, not anything you are holding. Still, fishing around in your inventory you realize you still have a small bit of candy. You hold it up to the fake princess and say that it's the anomaly.

"What is that?" The princess says. "A bit of chocolate? How is that an anomaly?"

You throw it towards her, and tell her to take a closer look if she doesn't believe you. The Princess slowly leans over the banister, allowing her telescoping arms to reach for the candy below. At this moment, you hear a sharp crack from Hilde's hair gun and a streak of light hits the other robot just above her central eye. Unlike the crossbow bolt, the bullet peirced through her head and even appears to have gone through the wall behind her..

The fake princess, now missing a good portion of her head, falls over the banister and smashes hard onto the theatre floor. From the pile of broken chairs, stone, and sparking machinery the robot completes her resemblance to a spider as her legs begin to slowly curl up, pointing to the sky. Kamiko and Hilde begin walking towards the abomination, and you slowly follow behind.

"Is it still functioning?" Kamiko says, readying an overhead smash with the crossbow.

"Not that I can tell." Hilde says, her screen beaming several different lights in turn. "And she better not be. It doesn't seem fair to survive a #1 while also missing half her face."

As the other two examine the defeated monster, you ask what a #1 even is.

"A large hamburger and fries." Hilde says. "A round for my hair gun. All of them numbered, all of their effects very powerful and very top secret.. A #1 is just a cold iron slug. Boring, but efficient."

"It'd be a bit like shooting a human with a radioactive round from a rifle. Even if you survive you might not in the long run." Kamiko explains. "And it has great penetration in highly grammar influenced areas, such as a story.."

While Hilde and Kamiko try to decide what to do next, you look around the area where the robot fell. You spot the crown she was wearing before her transformation. You get an idea, and after retrieving it you ask Kamiko to put it on. Maybe she'll become the princess and they can end this.

"Roles can be transferred through items sometimes... I suppose it's worth a shot." Your larger friend says thoughtfully, and putting the crown on. "Oh, but I can't be both Hans and the Princess.Here, take this."

She hands you the crossbow and then asks, "...Do you feel particularly Hans-ish? i don't feel particularly princess-like."

You can't say you feel any different. You ask if the real princess is maybe in the ring you were cursed with while raising your hand towards Kamiko.

"Maybe? I'm not sure. It seems weird for that thing to just give away the one person that could end the story though." She says, scratching the back of her head in thought. Awkwardly, she says to your hand., "H-hello? Are you in there Princess? Do you need help?"

There is no answer.
