== Plot ==
=== Part 1 ===
* As the night comes to an end, Terra informs her companions about what Ystävä has told her and that they have to make their way up to the Dragonspine Mountains. They pack their things and take the fastest way north, but as the hours pass by, Ignis thinks she knows where to go but actually gets them lost instead. As the trees begin to change around them, they try to find their way back to the right route but the path they took does not look like it did a few seconds ago and they notice two armed figures standing between the trees. Ignis and Terra approach them to ask for the right path but the figures are not from here either. They say that they come from overseas and are here to study and collect samples. After a quick round of introductions and greetings, their new friends Diirna and Balko offer them help and lend them one of their navigators. Shortly after, the group continues their way through the woods.  
* Angelo analyzes the new device and activates it, which causes him to suddenly disappear. Angelo finds himself in a forest that looks different than the one he just was in, probably not on the mainland anymore. Terra sends Angelo a message, asking where he is. They decide that Terra and Ignis should keep going North and Angelo will find a way back to them. 
* While Terra asks Ystävä for a faster way to get to their destination, with no response, Ignis asks the woodland creatures, especially a little sparrow who just wants treats, to guide them through the woods.
* As Angelo tries to find a way back, he meets a few strangers and a Priest of Fate, who announce him as an honored guest of the city of Ssepikoss  and lead him into the city to get him help.
=== Part 2 ===
* The Priest leads Angelo to the temple. On the way there, he gives a tour through the city and tells him about their way of living and for example the Circle of the Skin, who practice acting without thinking. As he reveals more and more, the priest suddenly goes completely still as if frozen. Angelo feels a tap on his shoulder and as he turns around, he sees a little wagon with all kinds of different glass baubles and bottles, and in front of it, a half-elf looking man that introduces themselves as Halifax. Halifax asks if they met before because Angelo remembers hearing that name before, maybe in one of his dreams. Angelo reveals to him that he sometimes dreams about a three eyed man and a winged horse. They make a deal: Halifax gets Angelo back to his friends and in exchange Halifax wants him to retrieve a carved stone up in the mountains. They both agree and as Halifax wields his magic, everything around Angelo goes dark.
* Ignis & Terra spend their time traveling with reading the smut book. At night, they try to message Angelo again but instead of him, another voice answers: “My wares are many and plentiful. Whould you like a taste?“ (02:20:52). To get Angelo back, they make a deal to get the entity one of the godkiller‘s eyeballs in exchange for their friend. The individual tells them that all they have to do is rest so they decide to do that for the night. 
* Even though Terra normally doesn‘t sleep, her eyes begin to get heavier and heavier while reading her book. She dreams about her house; Stella and Ines just sitting there and staring at her. As Terra touches her daughter‘s hair, Stella begins to fall apart, green flames spilling out of her mouth and all over the house. Until all that is left is a hooded figure looming above everything. As Terra wakes up from her nightmare, Angelo is next to her, still sleeping as the dawn breaks through.
* Awake, they update each other about what happened, finding out that both Angelo and Terra made a deal with Halifax. As a reminder of it, they both have a symbol on the back of their hands. Ignis checks in on Terra after her nightmare before they pack up their stuff.
* The group continues their travels. As they break through the treeline, they can see the Dragonspine Mountains on the horizon and before that, a military encampment located in their way.
