Ep. 9: Mariel relives her past with Lacroix and decides to march on the capital.
Rugis announces that a significant historical shift is imminent for Hortensia. Adelheid addresses the anti-Church coalition, urging them to gather in Olivier. Later, she escorts Alfred’s group to meet Lacroix, a witch who identifies herself as a Magonian sentinel. Lacroix employs her abilities to make Mariel experience memories from before the rebellion. Mariel discovers that her father’s effort to resurrect her mother via a relic caused the kingdom’s disaster. Although offered the chance to reverse this tragedy, Mariel declines. Upon waking, Lacroix informs Mariel that the Pope possesses the relic and confirms her success in the trial. Armed with this knowledge, the group plans to travel to the capital. Theresia updates Rugis on these developments. Two weeks later, Mariel organizes the Liberation Army. As they proceed toward the capital, they encounter an ambush by Saria and Elva.
