Following Gjallarhorn's failed to assault on Millennium Island, members of Tekkadan, especially Orga, struggle to come terms with the death of Biscuit. Aboard their transport ship, Kudelia proposes to Makanai a strategic route to Edmonton from Anchorage on the condition that he asks a key ally of his to lobby for him until their arrival. Meanwhile, Carta continues her mission to intercept Tekkadan against Iznario Fareed's orders.
