Chapter 4-2

== Minori ==
Minori infiltrates the Red City archives and reads the notes taken during every meeting of the War. He uncovers the horrid truth that Empress Mayus is enlisting soldiers that were experimented on to be more powerful and loyal. Dubbed Project March, the Project in Northern Kaentos has been running tests on criminals and creatures to learn about them to make the perfect soldier.
Minori confronts Mizu Hidora - who has been present in most meetings - and urges him to help prevent the war from starting. Mizu denies any intention on intervening, displaying a depression that developed from the tragedies that had befell him. With little remorse, Minori departs in search of someone more useful to him.
Rin Mayus and her best friend Rita Sadao are sat together on a bench overlooking a beautiful sunrise. The Palace typically has a morning curfew, but it was lifted for its inhabitants to enjoy wondrous rising sun. Minori confronted them both with the intent of turning Rin against her mother. It didn't work how he envisioned it to, but Rin gave in and accepted to look into Project March with him in the north. Before departing, Minori's heart sunk under the words of Rita. She lashed out, saying he's no longer at his best, and worse of all, that he is alone with no friends or family. Minori had no idea what provoked her, and didn't think to much on it either.
They boarded an airship together and sailed for Kholdon, the Norhern Kingdom of Kaetos. It took a mere hours as opposed to several days by foot. They arrived in the snow that coated an old landing dock. No airship had been north in months. A young girl by the name of Anastasiya greeted them and welcomed them to her wintry city. Minori's eyes were set on the massive walls of the Fortress in the center of the city.
