Chastille and several other Angelic Knights assault Zagan's castle, but he's unwilling to start stacking up bodies with Nephy around. When his hesitation puts him in danger, Nephy unleashes her own power to save him.

Devastated and alone, Nephy is found by the people of Kianoides and comforted by Chastille and Manuela. Just as Nephy steels her resolve and decides to return to Zagan, she's spirited away by magic from an unknown source.

Zagan has arrived to face Barbatos and save Nephy. He brings the full power of an Archdemon to the clash. However, interacting with Barbatos' spell circles has an unexpected effect.

Zagan, Nephy, and For investigate Marchosias' old estate and discover a shocking connection. A veteran Sacred Sword wielder arrives, and Chastille quickly finds herself disagreeing with him, an incredibly dangerous position to take without her sword.
