19 months after the events at Saazbaum's Landing Castle, a UFE raiding party finds themselves shot down by the Tharsis, piloted by Slaine himself. Slaine has become a Vers Knight with the power of Aldnoah under Saazbaum, and the Vers Empire has been slowly conquering North and South America under the new support of Princess Asseylum as they plan to expand their reach. On Earth, the crew of the Deucalion prepare to finish their R&R when they come under attack from a Martian Kataphract called the Frozen Elysium, capable of freezing all matter around it. The UFE Kataphracts find that they can't hit this new threat before getting frozen to death, when Inaho appears in his restored KG-6 Sleipnir, a training mech, using airburst grenades to create a small path through the freezing field and destroy the enemy. The episode flashes back to the moments after Asseylum and Inaho were shot in the Landing Castle. Slaine decided to spare Saazbaum and escape with him and Asseylum in the Tharsis, while Inko and Yuki tried to get a wounded Inaho back to base where he needed surgery. Things looked grim with Asseylum absent and the Deucalion still unpowered. However, they discover that Inaho now has the power to activate Aldnoah Drives as well, and use it to reactivate the Deucalion. In the present, with repairs complete, the Deucalion launches into space. Meanwhile, the Princess Asseylum giving the war speeches to the Vers Empire turns out to be another Princess named Lemrina, disguising herself as Asseylum under Saazbaum's supervision. As the night ends, Slaine goes to visit the real Asseylum, being kept alive in a medical tank.
