Bellwood and most of the Eins Order go into hiding, and a massive manhunt is launched to track them down. Marlya and Free locate someone from Marlya's past, but the news he tells them only makes the whole situation that much more alarming.

The Eins Order launches an attack just prior to Golbarn's funeral. This results in most everyone in Dorothea being split up, and with Ray Dawn badly injured. Once Marlya is left by herself to guard Ray, Veronica chooses that time to exact her revenge.
