'''The Guard''' [[Image:Guard.gif|right]]

Later when his wife becomes ill, he purchases medicine from Tingle. He afterwards begins selling jars to Tingle until his wife is suddenly plagued by ghosts. 

He catches a ride to the Icy Plain to find the source of the ghosts. He is at first too afraid to go in, so Tingle has to push him all the way to the graveyard. He then soldiers on to face the ghost, but her power is so great that she kills him in one bolt. To bring him back to life, Tingle has Chiko's deceased grandmother disguise herself as the Guard's wife and she convinces him to return to life. The guard's fury becomes so great that the ghost is unable to scratch him. The ghost then admits she was jealous of the guard's affections for his wife, so she releases her. Afterwards the Guard returns to his post, but not before giving Tingle ample reward for his help.
