Ep. 12: Yuki and Inko escort Asseylum while Inaho fights Saazbaum and Slaine discovers his Aldnoah core activation ability.

Following the Deucalion crash, Yuki and Inko escort Asseylum to the Landing Castle's Aldnoah core. Inaho confronts Saazbaum, whose Dioskuria Kataphract now holds all previous abilities. Slaine boards the Tharsis to fight but discovers he can also activate Aldnoah cores. Inaho exploits Dioskuria's weaknesses, severely damaging it, but Slaine tackles Inaho's Kataphract before the battle ends. Asseylum shuts down the core just as the Kataphracts crash through the wall. She attempts to help Inaho but is shot and seemingly killed by Saazbaum, who thanks Slaine for saving him. Enraged, Slaine mortally wounds Saazbaum. Inaho crawls to Asseylum, realizing his love for her, but Slaine holds him at gunpoint. Inaho attempts to draw his weapon and is shot. The UFE claims victory after the landing castle shutdown, though Asseylum remains missing.
