Episode 12: The Threat of the Empire

Riannon left flowers to pay respect for the dead Imperial soldiers and prayed for the dead. However, when she was doing so, she overheard two foreign voices from afar. Curious, she decided to look for it, and listened.

Not intending to get caught, she hid in one of the bushes and listened in. However, Gaius calmly looked at her direction and told her to come out. Having no choice at all, she decided to come out as quietly as she could.

Applauding her for her smartness, Gaius explained to his assistant that the girl is indeed smart since she knew that if she creates any noise, this would be a disadvantage and could cause unavoidable battle.

He decided to offer Riannon a bargain, one that she could not refuse. He asked her to go with them and they'll retreat. And of course, not wanting to endanger the others, she agreed.

Meanwhile, Arthur and Morgan were looking for her, and upon the discovery that Riannon is missing, Arthur decided to take action.

Episode 12: The Threat of the Empire

Arthur is getting out of control. With the disappearance of his sister, his resolve vanish, his coolness broke and he lost his concentration as fear and anxiety coursed through his veins. Begging Arawn to take action, he was surprised that his request was denied.

As he was about to go and take action for himself, Arawn stopped him and told him to relax, as the demon king himself will go look for his beloved sister. Still not content, Arthur tried to stop Arawn, but the elder has already left leaving Arthur angered and hurt.

However, Ogam explained that Arawn will go to a deep sleep or what we would call as "meditation" since Riannon and he had a certain connection due to the "bizzare" occurrences that took place on their first meeting.

Meanwhile, at Gaius' encampment, Riannon was held captive. It was revealed that the very same Talieshin was talking with the leader- Gaius.

After he left, Gaius asked his assistant about the newly captured girl. In all actually, she was really behaved, supported by the next few scenes that has occured where Riannon seems not to be affected by the capture at all and even greeted the guards who served her food.

Though she commented about the food's ingredients, the guards got angry at her but before lifting a single hand to her, they heard a commotion outside and it was revealed that a soldier fell from a high place.

Riannon rushed to the site and despite everyone's protest, she healed his wounds.

Naturally, Gaius' assistant reported the entire occurrence and Gaius asked where she is. It was discovered later on that Riannon is serving hotpot to the soldiers. Shocked at this, Gaius talked to her in private and asked her why she is helping what could be the ones who will kill her and her friends in the future.

She merely replied that it doesn't matter when one is friend or foe but if being in the camp is her destiny, she would gladly accept it.

Back in the Gael's city, Arawn has emerged from his meditation and announced that they should gather everyone as they will start the search.

Meanwhile, Gaius introduced Riannon and let her observe how the Empire prepare their exercises and how the execution of these takes place.

Gaius told Riannon "Now you have seen the overwhelming power of the Empire". Gaius and Riannon held an exchange of words, ideas and principles. Gaius threatened her that they would surely lose. But the girl replied that they will not give up.

While Gaius is thinking of what Riannon referred to as "the Flame of Hope", the Gaels started to mobilize and start their rescue operation.

Back in Avalon, everyone is shown and that their worry for Riannon is clearly displayed. But they need not worried because Riannon is treated well and that the Imperial soldiers recognized her as a part of the group and not an enemy.

While in Gaius' camp, Riannon noticed a familiar song and there, she met Talieshin. The bard himself recognized the familiarity through the hotpot and they had engaged on a private conversation beneath the stars.

During their conversation, Talieshin made various comments on her, on how elf-like she is and less human and how he knew of the Children of the Night. While talking, Riannon heard a voice, mistaking it for the god of the stars. The voice urged her to come, and indeed she left a Talieshin who merely shrugged and murmured "maybe she doesn't like me".

Meanwhile, the guards tried to stop Riannon who is leaving the gates. She was almost shot with an arrow but Talieshin used his body as a shield and Gaius emerged, telling the men not to pursue and admonishing Talieshin for his actions.

On the other hand, Riannon is just glad to be reunited with her friends and family...
