[Summary]

Umi asks Megor about the connection between their last names which Megor quickly denies.

Chad travels to Win-ko but gets stopped by Kyle for a moment. They decide to put away their differences till they figure out what is going on at Win-ko.

Fuu and Ferio’s group talk about getting weapons from Clef. Waiting on Clef to finish with Baron Drakov, Kyoko and her future parents, move to another room to talk and get acquainted. Fuu agrees and suggests that they get Fyulu from Clef after he is done, also.

The brothers, Kyle and Chad, continue on however they are stopped once more by a presence. The stranger happens to be an old man who tells Chad that his brother Kyle has the power to fight the enemies ahead but he doesn’t. Eventually the old man takes Chad to an island (time is warped so that despite spending two years there while training, no time has passed on Cephiro) where he trains. The old man, once returning Chad to the mainland of Cephiro gives him a sword while asking Chad to think about becoming the High Priest of Cephiro. The old man does not let Chad answer right away but instead sends him off. It is only after Chad is gone that it is revealed that the old man was Zagato’s father, Chad’s grandfather who has come back from the otherworld (or the underworld/land of the dead/heaven) to grant his hearts wish to train one of his grandchildren. At last Chad and Kyle make it to Win-ko.

The Baron Drakov finally departs after talking to Emeruade in brief.

Mackey wonders who this ‘Mokona’ fellow is and to Hikaru she suggests they go with Zazu and them for the start of the mission.

Ferio still has on his mind the similarities between Kyoko and Fuu as they head towards the doors.

At the end of Crossroads 24 Clef sends Mokona over to Mackey and Hikaru while frustratingly shakes his head at the disordered room! (We welcome Hezaa who currently plays Clef!!!!!)
