Rakan and co. continue their journey towards the Imperial Capital, but new obstacles continue to get in their way. Enormous snakes begin to emerge from the ground, wreaking havoc before disintegrating into streams of water – could this be the next part of the Ayame Prince’s prophesy? Meanwhile, Narushige recalls his painful past as his younger sister learns just what it means that she has become the next “Sacrificial Child.”
