Episode 24 Court of the Charemis
A solitary figure sits by himself upon a grim bench inside a dim, dank jail cell. He keenly observes the dark passage leading into the cells, and the bars completing the walls of his own confinement. Behind him a feeble patch of light peers in from a similarly barred window barely large enough to peep ones head through.
Episode 23 The Center of the World
The grand royal city of Meridean lies under a sky bathed with the light of an artificial sun, its majestic boulevards brimming with hurrying merchants, businessman, travelers, and local residents.
As always, guards armed with Skylars stand in pairs at each entrance into the city. It is here that Kunai, Ryuu, Ivy, Ayame, and Sasha make their way into the grand entrance of Meridean.

Episode 22 The Sauna and a Familiar Scent?!
Kunai, Ryuu, Ayame, Ivy, and Sasha stand blinking stupidly before the entrance of a large complex built in the shape of a gigantic tree, with thick boughs overhanging across the night sky, obstructing the stars from view.
~Notes~
Dedicated to the real Ivy in my life, because today is her birthday.
Episode 21 The Lantern Behind The Eyes of Fire
Ive always wondered about him. Even though Ive known him for six years, its been difficult getting him to talk about himself. As a result, Ive hardly gotten to know him, but I still owe him a great debt, so I never thought to ask. However, Ive always roamed the libraries of this castle where we live, searching for any hint or clue that might tell me about his past.
Episode 20 Red Eyes of Fire
In a land emptied of all but oblivion and a feeling of desolation, a single man stands at the peak of a ruined hill with a large burden upon his back.
As a cloud shifts in the sky, a beam of moonlight falls upon his visage, revealing the darkened features of a Ranger known as Arayu.
Arayu lays down the burden strapped to his back wearily, and allows it to lie at rest beside him. He squats down as well, and takes a rest. From within his pockets Arayu takes a few tiny, brown warrior pills, chewing them silently as a supplement for rejuvenating his energy.
Episode 19 A Priest Who Lost His Way
As the smoke clears, the result of the initial explosion is made clear. Zack remains standing still on one side, apparently unmoved, fixed and rooted to the same spot, that same mocking, grinning expression on his face.
On the other side stands Kunai and Ryuu, side by side, weapons bared and flares of anger in their eyes. Ayame and Ivy stand idly by, shock woven into their faces. Sasha and Claire stand nearby, unable to come to terms with the events that had just happened.
Episode 18 The Rule of Boom
A lone rider on horseback journeys hurriedly through the forgotten, desolate plains in the far eastern reaches of the world known as Night. A black traveling cloak shields this rider, though under the folds of his cloak is a shirt of chain mail bearing a coat of arms depicting a crescent moon next to a red cross.
The rider hurries onward, spurring his horse forward towards what appears to be a chain of temples sitting along the horizon under the night sky.
Episode 16 Queens PortThe City by the Ocean
Kunai, Ryuu, Ivy, Ayame, and Sasha stand blinking their eyes as they struggle against the bright rays of an artificial sun hovering over their newest locale.
The group of five stands before an arched entryway, where on each side stands an armed guard dressed in uniform armor complemented with a machine gun.
Episode 17 Crimson Sky
Several rows of wooden desks, each with a child seated behind it, stand assembled in a schoolhouse, where a female teacher stands at the front, lecturing.
In the middle row of these desks sits a rather pale youth about twelve or thirteen years old, with wavy brown hair and deep, contemplative gray eyes. He and other boys sitting nearby smirk as he appears to be reading a textbook but is instead holding a dirty magazine.
Episode 15 The Trail Grows Hot
A loud trumpet call rings throughout the skies painted blood red in the kingdom brought under rule of the Castle of Kyreim. A wide procession of solemn men and women dressed in black presses down the street, carrying in their midst a long, wooden coffin bearing a cross across its closed cover.
This grim procession finally stops in a large marketplace where a dais has been raised, and together the procession delivers the casket to rest upon the top of this dais.
