[Summary]

People awake in the morning after going to bed the previous night. Ready for Clef to assign missions in order to find out more on the elusive Ragyn.

Baron Drakov travels to the castle in a steed drawn carriage. The Baron, outside of the Crystal Palace, meets Kyoko and offers her to venture inside with himself. (Kyoko has appeared on Cephiro from the future, it will be revealed that her parents are none other than Ferio and Fuu.) The Baron and Kyoko go into the foyer where Clef stands readying himself for a big event. Clef quickly greets his friend which has been gone to Fahren for a very long time. Lamont has taken over the form of the dead Baron, though Clef does not realize this, yet.

Hikaru, worried about Nova, calls for her. Nova reluctantly answers but stays hidden. Kyoko quickly asks to talk to Clef after the large meeting. He agrees.

While everyone rises from bed Megor attacks a rather pathetic monster and Mackey joins in. Chad also wonders outside to find Megor in a very grumpy mood. He says he has come for other reasons but will not explain. Chad and Megor subsequently argue and almost get into a fight because it appears Megor’s dad died saving Chad’s life along time ago. Enraged that his father treated Chad more like a son than himself he explodes in anger. Finally they quell their anger as Umi walks into the space where they are.

Elsewhere… Naomi, Emeruade’s little child, appears infront of Zagato’s tomb calling up his spirit from the dead. Zagato, not in his right mind at being awakened by the will of his daughter, fights the souls of the damned with in him, since he has been awaken forcibly. He forgets about his children and almost hurts her before realizing that this little girl is his daughter. As this is happening a band of thieves comes to steal Zagato’s belongings. Fortunately Kyle is also in the area along side Sol Zagato. The thieves and the other three fight.

Neira, one of Clef’s students who happens to be from Fahren, eyes Baron Drakov. Mentally she introduces herself to him and waits patiently for him to answer.
