Hilda visits her mother in the Enderant Union outskirts but is shocked to learn she is a Norma after her mother addresses a young girl as Hilda. Fainting from fear, Hilda leaves but is ambushed by police. Meanwhile, Ange and Momoka prepare to advance on the imperial palace. They meet Ange’s friend Akiho at the Iaria hangar, where Ange steals a vehicle. Despite Akiho’s attempt to call for help, Ange restrains her before they escape into the capital. After being chased, Ange uses a secret royal passage to reach the palace. She rescues Sylvia, but Sylvia attacks Ange, cutting off her left arm and blaming her for their mother’s death and Sylvia’s paraplegia. Devastated, Ange is captured by imperial guards to face trial by Julio.
